The answer to 4 feet 3 inches minus 5 feet 5 inches (4' 3" - 5' 5") is displayed below:
- 1 foot 2 inches
Here is how we calculated 4 feet 3 inches minus 5 feet 5 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
4 feet 3 inches = 51 inches
5 feet 5 inches = 65 inches
Then, we deducted 65 inches from 51 inches to get the total number of inches:
51 - 65 = -14 inches.
Finally, we converted -14 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
4' 3" - 5' 5" = - 1' 2"
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.
