Subtract 4 feet and 6 inches from 14 feet how much is left?

Answer 1

We know that 1 foot = 12 inches. Therefore, 6 inches = 1/2 foot and 1/2 can be written as 0.5

Then 4 feet and 6 inches can also be written as 4.5 feet

So, we can simply do this equation to figure it out.

14 feet - 4.5 feet = 9.5 feet left

So, then 9.5 feet can also be written as:

9.5 feet

9 feet 6 inches
