5’7″ feet to cm

To convert a height from feet and inches to centimeters, you need to know the following conversions:

1 foot = 12 inches
1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

Let’s break down the conversion for 5’7″:

Step 1: Convert the feet to inches first:

5 feet = 5 × 12 = 60 inches

Step 2: Now, add the remaining inches:

60 inches (from the 5 feet) + 7 inches = 67 inches in total

Step 3: Convert the total inches to centimeters:

67 inches × 2.54 cm/inch = 170.18 cm

So, 5’7″ is approximately 170.18 centimeters.

To convert 5’7″ to centimeters, first turn the feet into inches (5 feet = 60 inches). Add the extra 7 inches for a total of 67 inches. Now, multiply the total inches (67) by 2.54 (since 1 inch equals 2.54 centimeters). This gives you approximately 170.18 cm. So, 5’7″ is roughly 170.18 centimeters.
