See 1 inch =2.54 cms.Then 1 foot =12 inches.Thus 1 foot = 12 multiplied by 2.54 =30.48cms.
Thus to find the number of feet in 174 cms, 174 will have to be divided by 30.48.This comes to 5.71 feet
or 5 feet 8 and half inches.

around 5 ft 10 inch (just a shade under)
30 cm = a foot (but not exact)
150 cm = 5 ft
20 cm = approx 8 inches
Quite a few of the people who have already answered have left their answer as a decimal...i.e. 0.875 = 10 inches..

If you write it like this, you can see how the units cancel:
174 cm = [ (1 inch / 2.54 cm) (1 ft / 12 inches) ] = 5.70866 ft
If that doesn't make sense, try this way:
1 inch = 2.54 cm
So, 174 cm = 68.5 inches
1 ft = 12 inches
So, 68.5 inches = 5.708 ft
Hope this helps!

1 foot = 12 inch = 12 * 2.54cm = 30.48cm
Let's divide 174cm by 1 foot:
174cm/1ft = 174/30.48 = (approx) 5.71
