Open in App

Solution

As we know, $1 f o o t = 12 i n c h e s$ .
Now if we multiply $1$ inch by $2.54$ , we will get the value of length in centimeters
To convert 5 feet 2 inches in cm
$5$ feet $2$ inches in cm $= [(5 \times 12) + 2] x 2.54$
$= 62 x 2.54$
$= 157.48 c m$
Hence, $5$ feet $2$ inches $= 157.48 c m$
