1 foot = 12 inches

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

so 173 cm = 173/2.54 = 68.11 inch = 5.676 feet

I use http://www.sciencemadesimple.com/conversions.html because it's fast and easy.



There is about 0.39 inches in 1 cm, so multiply 173 by .39. More accurate would be .3937.

Or maybe it would be easier to use 2.54 cm per inch and divide 173 by 2.54.

Either way will come up with a good answer.



After converting to inches, simply calculate to get the anwer in feet and inches.

2.54 cm = 1 inch 12 inches = 1 foot (12inches/ft * 2.54 cm/in) = 30.48 cm/ft so if u are 5 foot 2 inch then {( 5 foot * 12 inch)+ 2 inch} = 62 inch 62 inch * 2.54cm = 157.48 centimeter.

Use dimensional analysis ask your teacher about it. Don't use an online converter or your cell phone because they won't be on the test with you.
