1 foot = 12 inches
So if you do…
70in/12in
=5.8333
Then to get rid of the decimal do…
12 x 5 = 60
meaning you have 5 complete feet which is equal to 60 inches.
If you subtract your total number of inches (70) from the equivalent to 5 feet (60)
70in-60in= 10in
Add the number of complete feet you have (5) and the number of inches leftover (10) together for your answer:
5ft 10in
