The answer to 5 feet 5 inches minus 7 feet 0 inches (5' 5" - 7' 0") is displayed below:
- 1 foot 7 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 5 inches minus 7 feet 0 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
5 feet 5 inches = 65 inches
7 feet 0 inches = 84 inches
Then, we deducted 84 inches from 65 inches to get the total number of inches:
65 - 84 = -19 inches.
Finally, we converted -19 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 5" - 7' 0" = - 1' 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.
