The answer to 11 feet 9 inches plus 8 feet 5 inches (11' 9" + 8' 5") is displayed below:
20 feet 2 inches
Here is how we calculated 11 feet 9 inches plus 8 feet 5 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
11 feet 9 inches = 141 inches
8 feet 5 inches = 101 inches
Then, we added the inches together to get the total number of inches:
141 + 101 = 242 inches.
Finally, we converted 242 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
11' 9" + 8' 5" = 20' 2"
Note: There are 12 inches in a foot. Thus, you multiply feet by 12 to get only inches, and
to make it back to feet and inches we divided total number of inches by 12.
