The answer to 3 feet 10 inches minus 1 foot 6 inches (3' 10" - 1' 6") is displayed below:
2 feet 4 inches
Here is how we calculated 3 feet 10 inches minus 1 foot 6 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
3 feet 10 inches = 46 inches
1 foot 6 inches = 18 inches
Then, we deducted 18 inches from 46 inches to get the total number of inches:
46 - 18 = 28 inches.
Finally, we converted 28 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
3' 10" - 1' 6" = 2' 4"
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.
