How the conversion works
A foot is 12 inches, and an inch is exactly 2.54 cm. So 6 ft 5 in is 6 × 12 + 5 = 77 inches, and 77 × 2.54 = 195.58 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 77 inches in feet? Rounded to the nearest centimeter: How tall is 196 cm in feet?
