The answer to 5 feet 3 inches minus 8 feet 0 inches (5' 3" - 8' 0") is displayed below:
- 2 feet 9 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 3 inches minus 8 feet 0 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
5 feet 3 inches = 63 inches
8 feet 0 inches = 96 inches
Then, we deducted 96 inches from 63 inches to get the total number of inches:
63 - 96 = -33 inches.
Finally, we converted -33 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 3" - 8' 0" = - 2' 9"
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.
