    While converting any unit into another unit,


    you should first know the relation between the units, which give us conversion factor.


    1. You must know this relation: 2.54 cm = 1 inch & 12 inches = 1 feet


    2. So, divide the following centimeter by 2.54 and you will obtain the result in inch which is equal to 67.71 according to your problem.


    3. Then, convert the above the result in to feet by dividing it by 12, the result will be 5.64 which is in foot.


    Note: If you are trying to convert the given centimeter into feet and inch, then


    you should follow the following steps after "third result" shown above


    1. The decimal number which 0.64 in above result, multiply it by 12 which is 7.68, nearly equal to 8 inch


    2. Then add your feet with your inch, you will obtain your result which is approximately


    5 foot & 8 inches.


    Hope this has helped in your conversion.


     


     


     

    5 foot 8 inches.

    it's a little under 5 ft 8 inches.

    5.6430  1720/25.4/12

    5.643045 is what the converter says on my cell phone.
