There are about 30.5 centimeters in a foot. The conversion between centimeters and feet is not clean because they’re from two different measuring systems, but an easy way to remember this is that a foot is about a third of a meter. That means a foot is about a third of 100 centimeters, and that makes sense because that’s close to 30.5 centimeters.
Additionally, an inch is about 2.5 centimeters. There are 12 inches in a foot, so if you multiply 2.5 by 12, you get 30, which is very close to 30.5.
