Explanation:

Convert the given value in cm into feet and inches.

Use the unit rates:

  • 1 foot = 30.48 cm
  • 1 inch = 2.54 cm

Convert:

  • 170 cm = 170/30.48 feet = 5.58 feet (rounded)
  • 170 cm = 170/2.54 inches = 66.93 inches

or

  • 170 cm = 5 feet and 17.6 cm = 5 feet and 7 inches (rounded)
