How it works

Every length unit has a fixed ratio to the metre, the SI base unit. The converter turns your value into metres, then into the target unit, so any pair of units works.

1 inch = 2.54 cm · 1 foot = 0.3048 m
1 metre = 3.28084 ft = 39.3701 in · 1 mile = 1609.344 m

Worked example

One metre equals 1 × 3.28084 = 3.28 ft, or 39.37 inches.
