Conversion: Feet to Meters

To convert feet to meters, we could approximate by multiplying the measurement in feet by 0.3 to convert it into meters. This is the exact reverse of the method we used to convert meters to feet.

  • 10 feet = 10 x 0.3 = 3 meters
  • 20 feet = 20 x 0.3 = 6 meters
  • 35 feet = 35 x 0.3 = 10.5 meters
  • 67.5 feet = 67.5 x 0.3 = 20.25 meters
I foot is exactly 0.3048 meters. If we use the conversion factor 1 foot = 0.3 meters, we would be 98.4% accurate as in the previous section.
