Feet and inches together
There are exactly 12 inches in a foot, so every answer on this page is exact: multiply by 12.
A height like 5 ft 7 in is two numbers, not a decimal. Convert the feet and add the inches: 5 × 12 + 7 = 67 inches. Typing 5.7 here means five and seven-tenths feet, which is 68.4 inches.
Feet are often written with a single prime and inches with a double prime: 5′ 7″ means 5 feet 7 inches.
