Understanding the Conversion Between Feet (ft) and Inches (in)

What is a Foot (ft)?

A foot, often shortened to "ft," is a unit of measurement in the imperial system primarily used in the United States. One foot is defined as exactly 0.3048 meters. It is divided into 12 inches, making it a practical unit for measuring length in various scenarios, such as construction, aviation, and everyday situations.

Being smaller than a foot, inches allow for finer measurements. Importantly, there are 12 inches in one foot, a key fact for converting between these two units.
