The correct answer is: No — 167 cm is about 5’5.75″ (approximately 5’6″).

Explanation

We convert centimeters to inches then to feet + inches.

Steps:

  1. Convert to inches: $167\div2.54\approx65.748\text{ in}$
  2. Convert to feet and remaining inches: $65.748\div12=5\text{ ft }$ with remainder $65.748-5\times12\approx5.748\text{ in}$
  3. So $167\text{ cm}\approx5\text{ ft }5.748\text{ in}\approx5’5.75”$.

For comparison: $5’5”=65\text{ in}=65\times2.54=165.1\text{ cm}$, so 167 cm is about $1.9\text{ cm}$ taller than 5’5″.
