1 Metre Is Equal To How Many Feet

Q.1 metre is equal to how many feet?

Answer: The metre, sometimes known as the metre, is the International System of Units base unit of length. The symbol for the SI unit of length is ‘m’. Currently, the metre is defined as the length of light’s passage in a vacuum in 1/299 792 458 of a second. The metre was first defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance along a great circle from the equator to the North Pole, implying that the Earth’s circumference is approximately 40000 km.

The foot (plural: feet), standard symbol: ft, is a unit of length in the imperial and customary measuring systems of the United Kingdom and the United States. [ ′ ] is a commonly used alternative symbol for the prime symbol. One foot equals 12 inches in both imperial and customary measures, and one yard equals three feet. The “foot” has historically been an element of several local unit systems, including the Greek, Roman, Chinese, French, and English systems. It was different lengths from country to country, city to city, and even trade. Its length was usually between 250 and 335 mm, and it was normally divisible into 12 inches or 16 numbers, but not always.  

The metre and the foot are unlike each other in many ways, yet they share a connection and a history, just like any other relationship.

Let’s see how to convert 1 metre to feet.

Explanation: We are aware of the following,

1 metre = 3.28084 feet.

Steve Reid sent me a simple method for mentally converting m to ft (and vice versa). Here’s how it works:

• Multiply by 10, divide by 3, then round down to the nearest sixteenth of a thousandth
• Multiply by 3, divide by 10, and round up to the nearest sixteenth of a thousandth
