The answer to 3 feet 1 inch minus 5 feet 4 inches (3' 1" - 5' 4") is displayed below:
- 2 feet 3 inches
Here is how we calculated 3 feet 1 inch minus 5 feet 4 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
3 feet 1 inch = 37 inches
5 feet 4 inches = 64 inches
Then, we deducted 64 inches from 37 inches to get the total number of inches:
37 - 64 = -27 inches.
Finally, we converted -27 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
3' 1" - 5' 4" = - 2' 3"
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.
