The height converter instantly converts between centimetres (cm) and feet and inches — the two systems used in clinical documentation worldwide. Nurses regularly convert patient height when admitting patients who know only their imperial measurement, calculating BMI, estimating Ideal Body Weight with the Devine formula, and documenting observations. 1 inch equals 2.54 centimetres; 1 foot equals 30.48 centimetres.

5 feet 7 inches equals 170.2 cm. To convert feet and inches to centimetres, multiply total inches by 2.54. 5'7" = 67 inches × 2.54 = 170.18 cm.
Divide the height in cm by 2.54 to get total inches. Then divide by 12 to get feet, and the remainder is inches. For example, 175 cm ÷ 2.54 = 68.9 inches = 5 feet 8.9 inches.
