Formula and Notes
The exact relationship is 1 ft = 0.3048 m. Therefore ft = m × 3.280839895013123 and m = ft × 0.3048. The inch is defined as exactly 2.54 cm, so 12 in = 1 ft.
Feet + inches output splits the total feet into an integer number of feet plus inches. Inches are rounded to your decimal setting. For carpentry-style results switch decimals low (0–2). For science work increase decimals or use significant figures.
FAQs
Multiply meters by 3.280839895013123 to get feet. Example: 2 m × 3.280839895013123 = 6.56167979 ft.
The factor is exact because 1 foot is defined as exactly 0.3048 meter. That makes 1 meter equal to exactly 3.280839895013123 feet.
Yes. Enter feet in the result box and use the inverse formula m = ft × 0.3048, or paste feet into the batch area and toggle the "reverse" option below.
Turn on “Show as feet + inches.” The tool splits total feet into whole feet and inches using your rounding preference for inches.
Use decimal places when you want fixed digits after the decimal point. Use significant figures to keep meaningful precision across large and small values.
No. The formula stays exact. Rounding happens only to the displayed result so internal math uses full precision.
Yes. Paste any list using spaces, commas, tabs, or new lines. The table updates live and you can export the results to CSV.
Because the foot is tied to the inch, and the inch is defined as exactly 2.54 cm. Since 100 cm = 1 m, you get 1 m ÷ 0.3048 m/ft = 3.280839895... ft.
