I won't do your homework for you by just giving you the answer, but I will explain and show you how to get the answer.

First, you know there are 12 inches in a foot, so you multiply 12 x 8, then add 3 to get the total for 8 feet 3 inches:

(12 x 8) + 3 =

96 + 3 =

99 inches

Next, you do the same for 4 feet and 8 inches:

(12 x 4) + 8 =

48 + 8 =

56 inches

Now you subtract 56 inches from 99 inches, which = 43 inches, then convert inches back to feet. Since 3 feet = 36 inches, that leaves 7 inches. So the answer is 3 feet and 7 inches.
