The answer to 2 feet 11 inches minus 11 feet 8 inches (2' 11" - 11' 8") is displayed below:
- 8 feet 9 inches
Here is how we calculated 2 feet 11 inches minus 11 feet 8 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
2 feet 11 inches = 35 inches
11 feet 8 inches = 140 inches
Then, we deducted 140 inches from 35 inches to get the total number of inches:
35 - 140 = -105 inches.
Finally, we converted -105 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
2' 11" - 11' 8" = - 8' 9"
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 the total number of inches by 12.
