Translate centimeter lengths into decimal feet
Centimeters are common in metric specifications and height measurements, while feet remain familiar in American construction and everyday descriptions. This converter returns decimal feet, preserving a direct numeric relationship rather than splitting the answer into feet and leftover inches.
The default 100 centimeters converts to 3.28084 feet. Reversing direction shows that 1 foot converts to exactly 30.48 centimeters. A result such as 5.5 feet means five and one-half feet, not five feet and five inches.
