How do you convert ft to meters

In the real world, we all know that 1 meter = 3.28 feet.

For example:

Convert 3 meters to feet.

We know that 1 meter = 3.28 feet.

Multiply by 3 on both sides.

3 * 1 meter = 3 * 3.28 feet

3 meters = 9.84 feet

If we need to convert feet to meters, divide a feet measurement by 3.28 to get meters.

1 foot = 1/3.28 meters

For example:

Convert 5.5 feet to meters.

Multiply by 5.5 on both sides.

5.5 * 1 foot = 5.5/3.28 meters

5.5 feet = 1.6768 meters
