In today's globalized world, it's essential to understand the metric system, which is used by most countries worldwide. One of the most common conversions is from feet to meters, a distance measurement. Whether you're an engineer, a traveler, or simply curious, this detailed guide will provide you with all the information you need to make accurate conversions from feet to meters and vice versa.
The metric system is based on the decimal system, making it convenient to convert between units. The fundamental unit of length in the metric system is the meter (m). One meter is approximately 3.28 feet.
1 meter = 3.28084 feet
To convert feet to meters, simply multiply the number of feet by the conversion factor:
Number of feet × 0.3048 = Number of meters
For example, to convert 10 feet to meters:
10 feet × 0.3048 = 3.048 meters
To convert meters to feet, divide the number of meters by the conversion factor:
Number of meters ÷ 0.3048 = Number of feet
For example, to convert 5 meters to feet:
5 meters ÷ 0.3048 = 16.404 feet
