Meters to Feet (m to ft) Converter

Convert meters to international feet with a worked example and an explanation of decimal feet versus feet and inches.

How it works

feet = meters ÷ 0.3048

An international foot equals exactly 0.3048 meters. The result here uses decimal feet instead of mixed feet-and-inches notation.

How to use this tool

Enter meters and select Convert. If you need inches for the fractional part of the result, multiply that fractional part by 12.

Worked example

2 m ÷ 0.3048 ≈ 6.56167979003 ft. The fractional 0.56168 ft is about 6.74 inches.

Limits of this tool

Uses the international foot, not the historical US survey foot. Decimal feet should not be read as feet followed by inches.

Good to know

Results are computed with 64-bit floating-point numbers. Very large or tiny values can lose precision; the display rounds only after calculation. Non-finite results are rejected.
