About This Conversion

Feet to centimeters is the direction needed when a US measurement has to enter a metric form: shipping paperwork, medical charts, furniture specs. One foot is exactly 30.48 cm, so the conversion is precise.

If the source is feet and inches rather than decimal feet, convert the inches separately or the answer will be badly wrong. 5 ft 10 in is not 5.10 ft; it is 5.833 ft, or 177.8 cm. Treating the inches as a decimal understates the height by about 2 cm.
