About this calculator
Since 1959, the international inch has been defined as exactly 2.54 cm, which fixes a foot at exactly 30.48 cm. Converting a height given in feet and inches follows directly: cm = ((feet × 12) + inches) × 2.54 — so 5 feet 9 inches (69 total inches) works out to 175.26 cm.
This conversion comes up constantly for anyone moving between imperial-height countries (the US, and informally the UK) and the metric world: filling out a visa or immigration form, entering height on a medical or fitness intake form outside the US, or simply describing your height to someone who grew up on centimetres.
