Feet to cm Height Chart — 4'0" to 7'0" (Free 2026)

By Sara LopezM.Sc. Metrology · contributor to open unit datasetsUpdated 6 min read

Every common human height from 4'0" to 7'0" converted to centimetres, plus the formula for any feet-and-inches value.

The formula

cm = (feet × 12 + inches) × 2.54. Convert to total inches first, then multiply by 2.54 — never convert feet and inches separately.

Worked example: 5'9"

5 × 12 = 60, plus 9 = 69 inches. 69 × 2.54 = 175.26 cm.

Chart 4'0"–5'5"

4'0" = 121.9 · 4'6" = 137.2 · 4'10" = 147.3 · 5'0" = 152.4 · 5'1" = 154.9 · 5'2" = 157.5 · 5'3" = 160.0 · 5'4" = 162.6 · 5'5" = 165.1 cm.

Chart 5'6"–6'0"

5'6" = 167.6 · 5'7" = 170.2 · 5'8" = 172.7 · 5'9" = 175.3 · 5'10" = 177.8 · 5'11" = 180.3 · 6'0" = 182.9 cm.

Chart 6'1"–7'0"

6'1" = 185.4 · 6'2" = 188.0 · 6'3" = 190.5 · 6'4" = 193.0 · 6'5" = 195.6 · 6'6" = 198.1 · 6'8" = 203.2 · 6'10" = 208.3 · 7'0" = 213.4 cm.

Average heights for reference

US women average 5'4" (162 cm), US men 5'9" (175 cm). Netherlands men average 6'0" (183 cm), the tallest national average in the world.

Reverse: cm to feet and inches

Divide cm by 2.54 for total inches, then divide by 12 — the whole number is feet, the remainder is inches. 180 cm ÷ 2.54 = 70.9 in = 5'10.9".
