What does the Length Converter do?

Imperial units are defined exactly in terms of metres: 1 inch = 2.54 cm, 1 foot = 0.3048 m, 1 yard = 0.9144 m and 1 mile = 1,609.344 m. The converter uses these exact definitions, so results are precise rather than rounded approximations.

It is handy for height (5 ft 7 in ≈ 170 cm), furniture and room sizes, running distances and travel.
