Revolt · Accepted Answer

To convert 6 feet into meters, first identify the units being converted, which are feet to meters. Next, use the conversion factor 1 ft = 0.3048 m 1 ft=0.3048 m, written so that feet are in the denominator: 0.3048 m 1 ft 1 ft 0.3048 m ​ . Multiply the original measure by this conversion factor, allowing the feet units to cancel. Then compute 6 × 0.3048 = 1.8288 6×0.3048=1.8288. Therefore, 6 6 feet is approximately 1.83 meters.
