The answer to 5 feet 11 inches minus 1 foot 7 inches (5' 11" - 1' 7") is displayed below:
4 feet 4 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 11 inches minus 1 foot 7 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
5 feet 11 inches = 71 inches
1 foot 7 inches = 19 inches
Then, we deducted 19 inches from 71 inches to get the total number of inches:
71 - 19 = 52 inches.
Finally, we converted 52 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 11" - 1' 7" = 4' 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.
