The answer to 2 feet 5 inches minus 5 feet 0 inches (2' 5" - 5' 0") is displayed below:
- 2 feet 7 inches
Here is how we calculated 2 feet 5 inches minus 5 feet 0 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
2 feet 5 inches = 29 inches
5 feet 0 inches = 60 inches
Then, we deducted 60 inches from 29 inches to get the total number of inches:
29 - 60 = -31 inches.
Finally, we converted -31 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
2' 5" - 5' 0" = - 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.
