Elliott's bed is 75 inches long. During his growth spurt, Elliott grew 6 inches. Before his growth spurt, he was 5 feet 11 inches tall. How much shorter is Elliott's bed than Elliott?

Since the bed is 75 inches or in height terms 6 feet 3 inches tall and since he grew 6 inches when he was 5'11 now he's 6'5 so the bed is 2 inches shorter than Elliot
