The answer to 5 feet 9 inches minus 3 feet 7 inches (5' 9" - 3' 7") is displayed below:
2 feet 2 inches
Here is how we calculated 5 feet 9 inches minus 3 feet 7 inches to get the answer above:
First, we converted feet to inches so we are only dealing with inches.
5 feet 9 inches = 69 inches
3 feet 7 inches = 43 inches
Then, we deducted 43 inches from 69 inches to get the total number of inches:
69 - 43 = 26 inches.
Finally, we converted 26 inches into feet and inches to get the answer.
5' 9" - 3' 7" = 2' 2"
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.
