How many hands high is a 7 ft horse?

You can't directly convert feet to hands because they measure different things:

* Feet measure length (from head to tail).

* Hands measure height (from the ground to the highest point of the withers, which is the area between the horse's shoulder blades).

To figure out how many hands high a 7 ft horse is, we need to know its height at the withers. Here's how you can approximate:

* Average Horse Proportion: Horses are generally about 1/3 taller than they are long.

* Approximation: Assuming a 7 ft long horse is about 1/3 taller at the withers, it would be approximately 7 feet / 3 = 2.33 feet tall.

* Conversion: Since 1 hand equals 4 inches, and there are 12 inches in a foot, 2.33 feet is approximately 2.33 * 12 = 28 inches.

* Hands: 28 inches is equal to 28 / 4 = 7 hands high.

Important Note: This is just an approximation. The actual height of a 7 ft long horse could vary depending on its breed and individual conformation.
