How to Convert Millimeters to Feet
Example: How many feet are equivalent to 46.24 millimeters?
As;
1 millimeters = 0.003281 feet
46.24 millimeters = Y feet
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 46.24 times 0.003281 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 46.24 * 0.003281 / 1 = 0.15171344 feet
Answer is: 0.15171344 feet are equivalent to 46.24 millimeters.
