The answer to 3 feet 0 inches minus 11 feet 6 inches (3' 0" - 11' 6") is displayed below:
- 8 feet 6 inches
Here is how we calculated 3 feet 0 inches minus 11 feet 6 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
3 feet 0 inches = 36 inches
11 feet 6 inches = 138 inches
Then, we deducted 138 inches from 36 inches to get the total number of inches:
36 - 138 = -102 inches.
Finally, we converted -102 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
3' 0" - 11' 6" = - 8' 6"
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.
