The answer to 3 feet 8 inches minus 3 feet 9 inches (3' 8" - 3' 9") is displayed below:
- 0 feet 1 inch
Here is how we calculated 3 feet 8 inches minus 3 feet 9 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
3 feet 8 inches = 44 inches
3 feet 9 inches = 45 inches
Then, we deducted 45 inches from 44 inches to get the total number of inches:
44 - 45 = -1 inches.
Finally, we converted -1 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
3' 8" - 3' 9" = - 0' 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.
