The answer to 5 feet 1 inch minus 3 feet 7 inches (5' 1" - 3' 7") is displayed below:
1 foot 6 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 1 inch minus 3 feet 7 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
3 feet 7 inches = 43 inches
Then, we deducted 43 inches from 61 inches to get the total number of inches:
61 - 43 = 18 inches.
Finally, we converted 18 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 1" - 3' 7" = 1' 6"
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.
