How to Convert Feet+Inches to Centimeters
To convert a measurement from feet and inches (ft and in) to centimeters (cm), you can use the following steps:
- Convert the feet to inches: Multiply the number of feet by 12 to get the total number of inches.
- Add the inches: Add the number of inches to the total from step 1.
- Multiply the total inches by 2.54 to get the equivalent measurement in centimeters.
Example 1
Lets say you have a measurement of 5 feet and 3 inches.
- Convert the feet to inches: 5 feet x 12 = 60 inches
- Add the inches: 60 inches + 3 inches = 63 inches
- Convert to centimeters: 63 inches x 2.54 = 160.02 cm
Example 2
If the measurement is 6 feet and 7 inches:
- Convert the feet to inches: 6 feet x 12 = 72 inches
- Add the inches: 72 inches + 7 inches = 79 inches
- Convert to centimeters: 79 inches x 2.54 = 200.66 cm
Just remember to add all the inches before you multiply your total amount of inches by 2.54 to get the centimeter result.
