The answer to 4 feet 11 inches minus 4 feet 2 inches (4' 11" - 4' 2") is displayed below:
0 feet 9 inches
Here is how we calculated 4 feet 11 inches minus 4 feet 2 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
4 feet 11 inches = 59 inches
4 feet 2 inches = 50 inches
Then, we deducted 50 inches from 59 inches to get the total number of inches:
59 - 50 = 9 inches.
Finally, we converted 9 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
4' 11" - 4' 2" = 0' 9"
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.
