How the conversion works

A foot is 12 inches, and an inch is exactly 2.54 cm. So 5 ft 6 in is 5 × 12 + 6 = 66 inches, and 66 × 2.54 = 167.64 cm. Nothing is rounded: because the inch is defined as 2.54 cm, a height in whole or half inches always comes out in centimeters with two decimals at most.

Asked the other way round: How tall is 66 inches in feet? Rounded to the nearest centimeter: How tall is 168 cm in feet?
