WHAT IS THE CONVERSION OF CM TO INCHES AND FEET?
There are precisely 2.54 cm in an inch. To convert cm to feet and inches, you'd divide the number of centimeters by 30.48 since that’s how many cm are in a foot. To figure out the inches, you take the remaining decimal and multiply it by 12 because that is how many inches are in 1 foot . It's that simple!
WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR HEIGHT CM TO FEET CONVERSION?
The formula to convert cm to feet and inches is pretty straightforward:
Step 1: Height in cm Ă· 30.48 = Height in feet
Step 2: Multiply the remaining decimal by 12
So for example, if you’re trying to convert 196 cm to feet and inches, the formula would be:
196 ÷ 30.48 = 6.43, meaning a 196 cm height in feet is 6’.
Then you multiply the remaining decimal, 0.43, by 12 to calculate the inches: 0.43 x 12 = 5.16
This means 196 cm to feet and inches is 6’5”.
