Height Converter: Fast and Easy Conversions

Use this height converter to change values between centimeters, meters, feet, and inches. Type a value, choose the unit, and get clear results in the other units. It works fast and keeps the math precise.

How It Works

The converter uses standard math that matches common height charts. One meter equals 100 centimeters. One inch equals 2.54 centimeters. One foot equals 12 inches. One meter equals 39.37 inches.

You enter a number and pick the unit you have now. The tool then shows the other units in a readable format. Here is what you will see for each input unit:

• If you enter centimeters, you will see meters, feet with inches, and total inches.
• If you enter meters, you will see centimeters, feet with inches, and total inches.
• If you enter feet, you will see centimeters, meters, and total inches.
• If you enter inches, you will see centimeters, meters, and feet with inches.

Rounding follows these rules to make results easy to read:

• Meters from feet show three decimals. Meters from centimeters show two decimals.
• Centimeters from meters show no decimals. Centimeters from feet or inches show two decimals.
• Total inches round to whole numbers from feet. They show two decimals from meters or centimeters.
• When you see feet and inches, the inches value shows one decimal.
