Why use a Height Calculator?

This Height Calculator delivers instant, accurate conversions and lets you control rounding to suit your needs.

- Centimeters to meters

Conversion formulas behind the scenes
- Inches = centimeters ÷ 2.54
- Feet = floor(total inches ÷ 12)
- Remaining inches = total inches ? (feet × 12)
- Centimeters = (feet × 12 + inches) × 2.54
- Meters = centimeters ÷ 100
These standard formulas ensure accuracy across a wide range of values. The tool also adjusts for rounding so that values like 11.999 inches correctly roll up to the next foot when appropriate.
Measurement tips for best accuracy
- Stand straight against a wall without shoes.
- Use a flat object (like a ruler or book) to mark the top of your head.
- Measure to the nearest 0.5 cm or 1/4 inch.
- Take measurements at the same time of day for consistency.
