The answer to 4 feet 8 inches minus 5 feet 0 inches (4' 8" - 5' 0") is displayed below:
- 0 feet 4 inches
Here is how we calculated 4 feet 8 inches minus 5 feet 0 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
4 feet 8 inches = 56 inches
5 feet 0 inches = 60 inches
Then, we deducted 60 inches from 56 inches to get the total number of inches:
56 - 60 = -4 inches.
Finally, we converted -4 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
4' 8" - 5' 0" = - 0' 4"
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.
