The answer to 5 feet 0 inches minus 1 foot 5 inches (5' 0" - 1' 5") is displayed below:
3 feet 7 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 0 inches minus 1 foot 5 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
5 feet 0 inches = 60 inches
1 foot 5 inches = 17 inches
Then, we deducted 17 inches from 60 inches to get the total number of inches:
60 - 17 = 43 inches.
Finally, we converted 43 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 0" - 1' 5" = 3' 7"
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.
