The correct answer is: $5.5118112\text{ ft}$

Explanation

You convert meters to feet using the factor $1\text{ m}=3.28084\text{ ft}$. Multiplying 1.68 meters by that factor gives the length in feet. I’ll show the arithmetic and also give the result as feet + inches and rounded to common precisions.

Steps:

  1. First step (conversion factor): $$1\text{ m}=3.28084\text{ ft}$$
  2. Second step (multiply): $$1.68\text{ m}\times3.28084\text{ ft/m}=5.5118112\text{ ft}$$
  3. Third step (convert fractional feet to inches): $$0.5118112\text{ ft}\times12\text{ in/ft}=6.1417344\text{ in}$$

Therefore, 1.68 meters = $5.5118112\text{ ft}$, which is the same as approximately 5 feet 6.14 inches.

Common rounded forms:

  • Rounded to two decimal places: $5.51\text{ ft}$
  • As feet and nearest inch: $5\text{ ft }6\text{ in}$ (since 6.14 in ≈ 6 in)
  • More precisely as feet + cents of an inch: $5\text{ ft }6.14\text{ in}$

If you want a different rounding or the exact conversion using more digits for the meter-to-foot factor ($1\text{ m}=3.280839895\ldots\text{ ft}$), tell me and I’ll recalculate to that precision.
