There are several different ways you can work problems like this. The method you may prefer may be different from the one I prefer. At least, they include ...

___

1. There are 12 inches in a foot.

  23 ft 7 in - (13 ft 11 in) = (23 -13) ft (7 -11) in = 10 ft (-4) in = 9 ft 8 in

__

2. There are 4 quarts in a gallon.

  18 gal 2 qt - (5 gal 3 qt) = (18 -5) gal (2 -3) qt = 13 gal (-1) qt = 12 gal 3 qt

__

3. There are 3 feet in a yard and 12 inches in a foot.

  21 yd 1 ft 7 in -(12 yd 2 ft 9 in) = (21 -12) yd (1 -2) ft (7 -9) in

  = 9 yd (-1) ft (-2 in)

  = 8 yd 2 ft (-2) in

  = 8 yd 1 ft 10 in
