The answer to 5 feet 8 inches minus 5 feet 5 inches (5' 8" - 5' 5") is displayed below:
0 feet 3 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 8 inches minus 5 feet 5 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
5 feet 5 inches = 65 inches
Then, we deducted 65 inches from 68 inches to get the total number of inches:
68 - 65 = 3 inches.
Finally, we converted 3 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 8" - 5' 5" = 0' 3"
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.
