The answer to 5 feet 8 inches minus 3 feet 1 inch (5' 8" - 3' 1") is displayed below:
2 feet 7 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 8 inches minus 3 feet 1 inch to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
5 feet 8 inches = 68 inches
3 feet 1 inch = 37 inches
Then, we deducted 37 inches from 68 inches to get the total number of inches:
68 - 37 = 31 inches.
Finally, we converted 31 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 8" - 3' 1" = 2' 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.
