There are 4 inches in a hand so a 17.2 hand horse would measure 70 inches at the withers.
19 hands is measured from the withers,or the horses shoulders. Each 'hand' is 4". So 19 hands would be 19 x 4=76" and divided by 12" is roughly 6'3" at the shoulder.
Horses get measured to their withers. One hand is 4 inches. One foot is 12in. Do the math.
One hand is 4 inches and there are 12 inches per foot, therefore an 18 hand horse will be 72 inches tall or 6 feet.

An "Average" 15 hand horse is likely to weight 950 to 1000 lbs. If the purpose is to make an estimate for medicating or feeding, assume this as a baseline, then adjust upward or downward if the horse is particularly fine-boned and lean or heavy-set or overweight.
How many hands high a horse needs to be depends on how tall the rider is, if the rider is still growing and how wide the horse is. Most people can comfortably ride a horse in the 14.3 to 15.3 hand range no matter how tall they are.

multiply 12 by 4, then add the 2 (50 inches)how that works is each hand is 4 inches. So, if you multiply, 12 (hands) by 4, then add the 2 inches already there.A(4) + B =C
