The answer to 3 feet 9 inches minus 8 feet 1 inch (3' 9" - 8' 1") is displayed below:
- 4 feet 4 inches
Here is how we calculated 3 feet 9 inches minus 8 feet 1 inch to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
3 feet 9 inches = 45 inches
8 feet 1 inch = 97 inches
Then, we deducted 97 inches from 45 inches to get the total number of inches:
45 - 97 = -52 inches.
Finally, we converted -52 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
3' 9" - 8' 1" = - 4' 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.
