How to convert your height
For centimetres to feet and inches, enter a positive height in cm. For the reverse conversion, enter whole feet and inches below 12; enter 0 inches for an exact number of feet. Decimal cm and decimal inches are supported. This tool accepts combined heights up to 300 cm.
The conversion formula
One inch equals exactly 2.54 centimetres and one foot equals 12 inches. To convert to cm, multiply (feet × 12 + inches) by 2.54. To convert cm to total inches, divide by 2.54 and split the result into whole feet and remaining inches.
Examples
175 cm is approximately 5 ft 8.90 in. A height of 5 ft 9 in is exactly 175.26 cm. A height of 6 ft is exactly 182.88 cm. Values are rounded only for display; the converter uses the exact conversion factor.
Measured height, not predicted adult height
This calculator converts units. It does not estimate a child’s future height, compare two people visually, or assess whether a height is healthy. For a measurement, stand without shoes and use a flat wall and a level headpiece.
Units and decimal notation
5.9 feet is not the same as 5 feet 9 inches. A decimal part of a foot must be multiplied by 12 to get inches. In this tool’s imperial mode, enter 5 in Feet and 9 in Inches for 5 ft 9 in.
