How do you figure out how many centimeters are in 5 feet and 5 inches?

Answer 1

There are 2.54 cm in 1 inch. So to convert inches to cm, multiply by 2.54.

There are 12 inches in a foot, so multiply the 5 feet by 12 to get 60 inches, then add the 5 inches to get 5 ft 5 in = 65 in.

Then (65 in ) x (2.54 cm/in) = 165.1 cm
