The answer to 3 feet 0 inches minus 5 feet 1 inch (3' 0" - 5' 1") is displayed below:
- 2 feet 1 inch
Here is how we calculated 3 feet 0 inches minus 5 feet 1 inch to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
3 feet 0 inches = 36 inches
5 feet 1 inch = 61 inches
Then, we deducted 61 inches from 36 inches to get the total number of inches:
36 - 61 = -25 inches.
Finally, we converted -25 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
3' 0" - 5' 1" = - 2' 1"
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.
