Useful next steps

How Meters to feet works

This converter turns meters into feet by dividing by 0.3048, since one international foot is exactly 0.3048 meters. Type a length and the result updates as you type, rounded to 12 significant digits, so 1 m shows 3.28083989501 ft. The answer is in decimal feet only: the tool does not split it into feet and inches, so 1.75 m appears as 5.74146981627 ft rather than about 5 ft 9 in. It uses the international foot, not the older US survey foot, which differs by about 2 parts per million.

Before you start

Enter the length in meters with a period for decimals, such as 1.8. If you need feet and inches, plan to convert the decimal part of the answer into inches.

A worked example

Entering 1.8 returns 5.90551181102 ft. Multiplying the decimal part, 0.90551181102, by 12 gives about 10.9 inches, so 1.8 m is roughly 5 ft 10.9 in.

Common questions

How many feet are in a meter?

One meter is 3.28083989501 feet, about 3.2808. That number comes from the definition of the international foot as exactly 0.3048 meters, so feet = meters ÷ 0.3048.

How do I convert meters to feet and inches?

Divide the meters by 0.0254 to get total inches, then divide by 12. The whole number is feet and the remainder is inches. For 1.75 m, 1.75 ÷ 0.0254 = 68.8976 inches, which is 5 feet and about 8.9 inches.

How tall is 2 meters in feet?

2 meters is 6.56167979003 feet. To express that as a height, multiply the decimal part, 0.56167979003, by 12 to get about 6.7 inches, so 2 m is about 6 feet 6.7 inches. Height charts often round this to 6 ft 7 in.

Why does my result differ slightly from another converter?

Some sites multiply by a rounded factor such as 3.28 or 3.281, which drifts over long lengths: 100 m × 3.28 gives 328 ft instead of 328.084 ft. Older US land survey data may also use the survey foot, so 1,000 m is 3,280.833 survey feet rather than 3,280.840 international feet.

Is there a quick mental estimate?

Multiply the meters by 3 and add 10% of that. For 10 m, 30 plus 3 gives 33 feet, close to the exact 32.81 feet. For better accuracy, multiply by 3.28.
