Look up the conversion factor for feet-to-meters. Then multiply that by 19/3.
1 ft = 12 in
6 ft 4 in = 6 * 12 + 4 = 72 + 4 = 76 in
1 in = 2.54 cm = 2.54 / 100 = 0.0254 m
Tall of the basketball player in meters :
76 * 0.0254 = 1.9304 m
Tall of the volleyball player in feet :
1.75 / 0.0254 = 68.89763778 ft =
68.9 in rounded to one decimal place
6 ft 4 in = 6 * 12 + 4 = 72 + 4 = 76 in
