The answer to 4 feet 1 inch minus 8 feet 11 inches (4' 1" - 8' 11") is displayed below:
- 4 feet 10 inches
Here is how we calculated 4 feet 1 inch minus 8 feet 11 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
4 feet 1 inch = 49 inches
8 feet 11 inches = 107 inches
Then, we deducted 107 inches from 49 inches to get the total number of inches:
49 - 107 = -58 inches.
Finally, we converted -58 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
4' 1" - 8' 11" = - 4' 10"
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.
