Question:- How to write feet and inches with apostrophes?

Answer: In the case of feet and inches being expressed by apostrophes, everything is a bit more transparent and follow conventional rules. In the U.S., feet are written with a small opening (single) apostrophe ( ’ ) while expressing inches is expressed using a double apostrophe ( ” ). These apostrophes mean ‘feet’ and ‘inch’ as the shortened versions of feet and inch, respectively. The only exception is for numbers that are less than 6 feet, where you write the number followed by an apostrophe even if there are no inches (e. g. 6’). To add inches, then use the double apostrophe (for example 3”). This system is among the most popular used when it comes to construction, especially carpentry, as well as general measuring. Hence, it can be quickly used to indicate either height, or length, and one only needs to read it to understand it. Just like writing numbers, when using feet and inches ensure that there are no spaces between the number and the symbol as well as between feet and inches when writing both.
