How do I change meters to feet?

Converting between meters and feet is a straightforward process. You just need to remember a simple conversion factor.

One meter is approximately equal to 3.281 feet or 3 feet and a little over 3 inches. So if you have a length in meters and want to know what it is in feet, you multiply the number of meters by 3.281.

For example, if you have 5 meters, to convert to feet:
5 meters x 3.281 = 16.405 feet

The conversion also works the other way around. One foot equals about 0.3048 meters. So if you have a length in feet and need to get it in meters, you multiply the number of feet by 0.3048.

Let's say you have 10 feet. To get that in meters:
10 feet x 0.3048 = 3.048 meters

It's handy to remember these simple conversion factors when you need to go between the two common units of length measurement.
