Convert 8 feet and 2 inches to inches.

8ft * 12in/ft = 96in + 2 in = 98 in.

Now subtract the ceiling height from her height.

98in - 64in = 34in

2' 10"

64 inches is 5' 4", so 8 feet 2 inches - 5 feet 4 inches = 2 feet 10 inches

Or you can convert 8' 2" to inches, which is 98 inches, minus 64 inches. That equals 34 inches. 34' = 2' 10"
