The answer to 5 feet 1 inch minus 1 foot 9 inches (5' 1" - 1' 9") is displayed below:
3 feet 4 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 1 inch minus 1 foot 9 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
5 feet 1 inch = 61 inches
1 foot 9 inches = 21 inches
Then, we deducted 21 inches from 61 inches to get the total number of inches:
61 - 21 = 40 inches.
Finally, we converted 40 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 1" - 1' 9" = 3' 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.
