The answer to 5 feet 8 inches minus 11 feet 8 inches (5' 8" - 11' 8") is displayed below:
- 6 feet 0 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 8 inches minus 11 feet 8 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
5 feet 8 inches = 68 inches
11 feet 8 inches = 140 inches
Then, we deducted 140 inches from 68 inches to get the total number of inches:
68 - 140 = -72 inches.
Finally, we converted -72 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 8" - 11' 8" = - 6' 0"
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.
