The answer to 4 feet 6 inches minus 8 feet 5 inches (4' 6" - 8' 5") is displayed below:
- 3 feet 11 inches
Here is how we calculated 4 feet 6 inches minus 8 feet 5 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
4 feet 6 inches = 54 inches
8 feet 5 inches = 101 inches
Then, we deducted 101 inches from 54 inches to get the total number of inches:
54 - 101 = -47 inches.
Finally, we converted -47 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
4' 6" - 8' 5" = - 3' 11"
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.
