How Feet to Meters Conversion Works
Multiply feet by 0.3048 to convert the length to meters. The international foot is defined as exactly 0.3048 meters, so the conversion factor itself is exact. Formula: meters = feet x 0.3048.
The answer can still need display rounding when a feet value has many decimal places. This converter keeps the full JavaScript calculation internally and displays up to ten decimal places for ordinary values.
Feet to Meters Examples
1 foot to meters
1 ft x 0.3048 = 0.3048 m. One foot is exactly 0.3048 meters.
6 feet to meters
6 ft x 0.3048 = 1.8288 m. A height of six feet is 1.8288 meters before any preferred display rounding.
10 feet to meters
10 ft x 0.3048 = 3.048 m.
100 feet to meters
100 ft x 0.3048 = 30.48 m.
Common Feet to Meters Conversions
1 ft = 0.3048 m; 3 ft = 0.9144 m; 5 ft = 1.524 m; 6 ft = 1.8288 m; 10 ft = 3.048 m; 25 ft = 7.62 m; 50 ft = 15.24 m; and 100 ft = 30.48 m.
International Feet vs. Survey Feet
This converter uses the international foot used for everyday length conversion. The older U.S. survey foot differed by about two parts per million and was used in some historical surveying and geospatial records. For ordinary measurements, construction dimensions, heights, and modern general conversion, use the exact international factor of 0.3048 meters per foot. Preserve the source standard when converting legacy survey data.
