Feet to Metres Converter

Feet are an imperial unit common in the US and UK, while metres are the SI unit used almost everywhere else and throughout science. This free converter changes feet (ft) into metres (m) and back again — handy for converting heights, room sizes, distances and spec sheets between the two systems.

How it works

The conversion factor is defined exactly: 1 foot = 0.3048 metres. To convert feet to metres the tool multiplies by 0.3048; to go the other way it divides by 0.3048 (equivalently, multiply metres by about 3.2808 to get feet). Type a value in either field and the other updates instantly, in both directions.

Example

To convert 10 ft to metres: 10 × 0.3048 = 3.048 m. To convert a height of 6 ft: 6 × 0.3048 = 1.8288 m.
