Common questions
What is 5 feet 11 inches in centimetres?
5 feet 11 inches is 180.34 cm. An inch is defined as exactly 2.54 cm, so the conversion is exact rather than approximate.
How do I convert centimetres to feet and inches?
Divide the centimetres by 2.54 to get total inches, then divide by 12 for whole feet and keep the remainder as inches. This tool does both steps for you.
Why does my height show as 6 ft 0 in rather than 5 ft 12 in?
Twelve inches is a foot, so the tool carries the rounded inches into the feet column. A reading of 5 ft 12 in would never be written that way.
