SponsoredThis converter turns meters into feet (m to ft) using the exact definition of the foot, and also shows the result as feet and inches. Enter a length in meters and both results update.
A foot is exactly 0.3048 meters, so 1 meter is about 3.28084 feet. That figure is rounded; the exact value is 1 divided by 0.3048, a decimal that never ends, which is why this converter divides by 0.3048 instead of multiplying by a rounded number.
Meters to feet is common for building plans, room sizes, ceiling heights, diving depths and athletics. For heights and room dimensions, the feet and inches result is usually the more useful one, since 1.8 m reads more naturally as 5 ft 10.87 in than as 5.9055 ft.
How Many Feet in a Meter
There are about 3.28084 feet in a meter, or 3 feet 3.37 inches. The exact relationship runs the other way: since 1959 the inch has been exactly 2.54 cm, so a foot of 12 inches is exactly 0.3048 m. To convert meters to feet, divide by 0.3048.
Is M to Ft the Same as Meters to Feet
Yes. m is the symbol for meters and ft is the symbol for feet, so m to ft, m to feet and meters to ft all describe the same conversion with the same factor.

Meters to Feet and Inches
- Divide meters by 0.0254 to get total inches: 1.8 m / 0.0254 = 70.87 in.
- Divide total inches by 12; the whole number is the feet: 5 ft.
- The remaining inches are the total minus 60: 10.87 in.
- So 1.8 m is 5 ft 10.87 in.
Rounding too early is the most common mistake. Multiplying by 3.28 instead of dividing by 0.3048 puts 100 m at 328 ft instead of 328.084 ft, an error that grows with every meter. For a height in centimeters, the Centimeters to Feet and Inches Converter splits the result the same way, and the Square Meters to Square Feet Converter handles floor area.
