How to Convert Centimeter to Foot (cm to ft)

Here is how to convert from centimeters to feet: Feet = centimeters times 032808399

L(ft) = cm * 032808399 ft

or

L(ft) = L(cm) /30.48 ft

From there, you can deduce that One centimeter is equal to 0.032808 feet ( 1 cm = 0.032808399 ft) and that one foot is roughly 30.48 centimeters (1 foot = 30.48 cm).

Example how to convert cm into ft:

To convert 20 cm to feet: L(ft) = 20 x 0.032808399 = 0.656167979 ft.

How to convert feet to centimeters (ft to cm)

Let us go check how to convert feet into centimeters. We know 1 foot is equal to 30.48 centimeters (1ft = 30.48cm)

The distance L in centimeters (cm) is equal to the distance L in feet (ft) times 30.48:

L(cm)) = L(ft) / 0.032808399 ft

or

L(cm)) = L(ft) × 30.48

Exasmple in converting foot into cm

Here is how to convert 30 feet to centimeters. You just multiply 10 feet by 30.48 or divide 10 feet by 0.032808399 to get centimeters:
