The dimensions of a small post office are 9 feet 11 inches by 8 feet 2 inches. Why would you use the measurement 9 feet 11 inches instead of 8 feet 23 inches?

Because 23 inches is one foot and 11 inches, as there are 12 inches in a foot.
23/12 = 1 foot 11 inches
9 feet 11inches is preferable because 23 in . can be converted to 1 ft 11 in .
