Well, since there are 4 inches per 'hand', we can start like this:

4x11= 44

4x12= 48

NOW, 4x13= 52 after you get 52 inches just add one more inch!

So your answer is 53 inches!

How many feet are on the ground when horses are running?

Horses are measured in hands not feet, but you can always break down the hands measurement into feet and inches. Keep in mind one hand is 4 inches. Horses range on average from 14.3 to 17 hands tall, but can get taller than this (ponies are 14.2 hands and under, as it is a height designation.) So this means a 14.3 hand horse is 4'11" and a 17 hand horse is 5'8" at the withers. An interesting side note. The worlds smallest horse, a dwarf miniature horse is Thumbelina at just 17 inches or 1'5" (4.1 hands), while the tallest horse on record is Big Jake a Belgian draft horse that stands 20.2 3/4 hands which is 82.75 inches or 6'10 3/4" at the withers.


What did people use to measure horses back in the 1900s?

HAND (one hand = 4 inches). The horse is measured from the ground to the top of the withers,The withers are defined as follows (Wikipedia):The withers is the highest point on the back of a non-upright animal, on the ridge between its shoulder blades The withers in horses are formed by the dorsal spinal processes of roughly the 3rd through 11th thoracic vertebrae (most horses have 18 thoracic vertebrae), which are unusually long in this area. The processes of the withers can be more than 12" (30cm) in height on the average horse. Since they do not move relative to the ground (as does the horse's head), the height of a horse is measured from the ground to the withers. Horse sizes are extremely variable, from small pony breeds to large draft breeds. The height of the withers on an average Thoroughbred is 16 hands (5' 4").
