Centimeters (cm) to Feet (ft) Converter
Convert cm to feet precisely, with optional feet-and-inches output and a conversion table you can copy.
Conversion is exact because 1 ft = 12 in and 1 in = 2.54 cm, so 1 ft = 30.48 cm exactly. Differences come from rounding.
Feet-and-inches format is common for height. The inches part is rounded with your chosen rule.
Tip: Use a step like 5 or 10 cm for a compact table, or smaller steps for detailed size charts.
Exact standard: 1 ft = 30.48 cm (exact). This is derived from 1 in = 2.54 cm and 12 in = 1 ft.
CM to feet formula
feet = centimeters ÷ 30.48
Feet to cm formula
centimeters = feet × 30.48
CM to feet and inches
Convert cm to inches first, then split inches into feet and inches:
inches(total) = cm ÷ 2.54
feet = floor(inches(total) ÷ 12)
inches = inches(total) − (feet × 12)
feet = floor(inches(total) ÷ 12)
inches = inches(total) − (feet × 12)
For height, rounding to the nearest inch is common. For projects, pick rounding that matches your tolerance and measuring tools.
