The answer to 4 feet 7 inches minus 2 feet 6 inches (4' 7" - 2' 6") is displayed below:
2 feet 1 inch
Here is how we calculated 4 feet 7 inches minus 2 feet 6 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
4 feet 7 inches = 55 inches
2 feet 6 inches = 30 inches
Then, we deducted 30 inches from 55 inches to get the total number of inches:
55 - 30 = 25 inches.
Finally, we converted 25 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
4' 7" - 2' 6" = 2' 1"
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.
