How to convert cm to feet
One foot is exactly 30.48 centimeters, so to convert centimeters to feet you divide by 30.48.
Formula: feet = centimeters ÷ 30.48
Example: 175 cm ÷ 30.48 = 5.74 feet. To express a height in feet and inches, divide the centimeters by 2.54 to get inches (68.9), then take out whole feet: 68.9 inches = 5 ft 8.9 in.
Tip: The chart below shows decimal feet. Multiply the part after the decimal point by 12 to get the inches — for example 0.74 ft × 12 ≈ 8.9 inches.
