How to Convert Inches to Feet and Inches?

1 inch is equal to 1/12 feet:

1 = 1/12 ft = 0,083333 ft

The distance d in feet (ft) is equal to the floor integer value of the distance d in inches (″) divided by 12:

d(ft) = ⌊d(″) / 12⌋

To determine the additional length ‘d’ in inches (″), subtract 12 times the whole number ‘d’ in feet (ft) from the total length ‘d’ in inches (″):

dadd(″) = d(″) – 12 * d(ft)

Note: 12 inches (12″) are equal to 1 foot (12 in = 1 ft).

Example

Imagine you have a wooden plank that measures 72 inches in length. To convert this length into feet and inches, you can use the following formula:

d(ft) = ⌊d(″) / 12⌋

In this case, it would be:

d(ft) = 72 / 12 = 6 feet

Now, to find the remaining inches, you can subtract the feet from the total inches:

Remaining Inches = Total inches – (Feet * 12)

Remaining Inches = 72 – (6 * 12) = 72 – 72 = 0 inches

So, a 72-inch wooden plank is equivalent to 6 feet and 0 inches in length. This conversion is frequently used in construction and carpentry to represent measurements in a more practical manner.
