Metres to feet, the conversion behind altitudes, building heights, property listings, pool lengths and dive depths. Aviation is the reason it comes up so often: most of the world measures in metres but flight levels are almost universally reported in feet.
Frequently asked questions
What's a quick mental conversion for metres to feet?
Multiply by 3 and add 10%: 50 m → 150 + 15 = 165 ft (exact: 164.04). It's within about 1% across any range, which is fine for sizing up a room or a hill.
How many feet is 100 metres?
328.08 feet. Useful anchors: 10 m = 32.8 ft, 25 m (a short-course pool) = 82 ft, 1,000 m = 3,280.8 ft.
