The answer to 2 feet 4 inches minus 4 feet 11 inches (2' 4" - 4' 11") is displayed below:
- 2 feet 7 inches
Here is how we calculated 2 feet 4 inches minus 4 feet 11 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
2 feet 4 inches = 28 inches
4 feet 11 inches = 59 inches
Then, we deducted 59 inches from 28 inches to get the total number of inches:
28 - 59 = -31 inches.
Finally, we converted -31 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
2' 4" - 4' 11" = - 2' 7"
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.
