In this fast-paced world, the need for accurate and quick conversion of measurement units has become important. So, people always need conversion tools to convert metric units or imperial units into other units. The Foot unit is used in the Imperial system, while the Centimeter is used in the metric system, and inches are used in the imperial measurement unit system, so people can face problems when converting them sometimes. The Foot as well as the inch unit system is mostly used in the U.S.A. and some other countries. Centimeter units are used globally and are smaller units of length compared to feet & inches because 1 foot = 30.48 cm and 1 inch = 2.54 cm. So, if you are unable to convert feet & also some units of inches into centimeters, then use the ft & inch to cm conversion tool, which helps you convert any feet with inches units also into centimeters.
In this feet and inches to centimeters converter, you don't need to put both the values of feet and inches to cm. If you have feet value, then you can put only the foot value and in the inches column, you can leave it empty, and it will calculate the value from feet to centimeters only. If you have the units of other measurement in temperature also like celsius or fahrenheit, and want to convert both units into each other then you can use Celsius to Fahrenheit Converter or Fahrenheit to Celsius Converter.
The mechanism of the Foot to Centimeter converter is simple for getting instant results for you. The user needs to input the number of feet and also the number of inches if they want to convert feet & inches value into centimeters in the given field, and the converter gives the result in equal centimeters by showing the calculations with the multiplication method. The speed, accuracy, and user-friendly interface make this conversion tool essential for those who work with measurements in daily life.
How do you convert Feet into Centimeters (feet to cm)?
Before either converting feet to centimeters or feet & inches to centimeters, you need to understand that Feet are larger units of length measurement than centimeters and inches, but inch units are smaller than feet, because 1 foot = 30.48 cm and 1 cm = 0.0328 feet and 1 inch = 2.54 cm. For converting any units of feet into centimeters or feet & inches into cm, you can use the conversion formula, which is given below-
Centimeter (cm) = Feet (ft) × 30.48
Use the above formula if you convert only feet units into centimeters and leave the inches box empty. But if you have feet as well as inches units, then the formula is -
Centimeters (cm) = Feet (ft) × 30.48 + Inches (in) × 2.54
This formula works with any type of length and does not change with the context, and by using the above conversion formula for both feet to cm and feet & inches to cm, it's just used for better or easier calculation. So, you can better understand with the given example below.
Example: Converting 50 Feet into Centimeters?
Sol:- Centimeters (cm) = 50 × 30.48 = 1524 cm
Example: Converting 4 feet 8 inches into centimeters.
Sol:- Centimeters (cm) = Feet (ft) × 30.48 + Inches (in) × 2.54
Centimeters (cm) = 4 × 30.48 + 8 × 2.54
Centimeters (cm) = 121.92 + 20.32 = 142.24 cm
If you don't want to do manual calculations, you can use this converter, where the result will be given instantly with 100% accuracy. Sometimes, people want to get instant results without getting any errors, so this ft to cm conversion tool, where you can also convert the units of feet with inches into centimeters, helps you to convert feet to centimeter & feet with inches to centimeters and provide instant results.
