Help with converting cm to feet!

I always use the rough guides that 1 metre is 3ft 3" and 1 inch is 2.5 cm & work everything else out from there!
 
1 cm = 2,54 inches.
Personally inches/feet are meaningless, but then again, I am an engineer and we converted 20 years before everyone else!

Inches/feet are definitely meaningless if 1cm = 2 1/2 inches!!!

For me, everything horsey is still converted back to feet for jumping & hands for heights. It's hard to get out of the old habits when you've been brought up on it for 20 years.

Gosh if this were true then 90cm would be about 7foot
