The answer to 4 feet 5 inches minus 5 feet 1 inch (4' 5" - 5' 1") is displayed below:
- 0 feet 8 inches
Here is how we calculated 4 feet 5 inches minus 5 feet 1 inch to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
4 feet 5 inches = 53 inches
5 feet 1 inch = 61 inches
Then, we deducted 61 inches from 53 inches to get the total number of inches:
53 - 61 = -8 inches.
Finally, we converted -8 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
4' 5" - 5' 1" = - 0' 8"
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.
