It depends on the size of the rim.
0.25 degrees is 1/16" on a 13" rim, it's almost 5/64 on a 15" rim. I don't 
know the math, I have a chart.
In most specs 1/16" toe out is the total toe. It would also be a negative 
number.

 folks talk in fractions of an inch.
 
 Assume 1/16 toe out is the number.  Is that 1/16 per side or 1/16 total?
 How many degrees per side?  Is there a conversion to do this?
