The answer to 2 feet 8 inches minus 10 feet 8 inches (2' 8" - 10' 8") is displayed below:
- 8 feet 0 inches
Here is how we calculated 2 feet 8 inches minus 10 feet 8 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
2 feet 8 inches = 32 inches
10 feet 8 inches = 128 inches
Then, we deducted 128 inches from 32 inches to get the total number of inches:
32 - 128 = -96 inches.
Finally, we converted -96 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
2' 8" - 10' 8" = - 8' 0"
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.
