13 A meter(metre) is approx. 39 inches(a touch more). 36" = 3 feet 4' x 3' = 12' 3" per meter times 4 = 12" = 1foot 12' + 1' = 13'(feet-approx) The higher the number of meters, the more deviation from the simple example you've given. Please look up the meter, at least to 2 decimal places. one meter = 3.28 feet or 39.36 inches SO - getting technical, 4 meters = 13 feet plus .36" x 4= 1.44" in addition to the 13 feet - thus - 4 meters = 13 ft. 1.44 inches Note: Not a 'swelled head here', but once in a while I'll do something like this. Here in Canada, back in the 50's I had to learn a substantial number of metric equivalences to what we call 'British' measurements of all kinds. It was just the schooling I had!! Even people from my generation mostly didn't have to study it. It just happened to be where I attended!! Thus, a huge number of Canadians still don't get it, although we changed to metric in 1976. Americans are at a tremendous disadvantage this way for two reasons. the metric system is 'Greek' to them, except for the Greeks, of course, and never mind the linear(length) measurements, volume and area are 'murder'. EXAMPLE: A real beaut - learning time! The 'American' 'gallon' is approx. 133 ounces (oh yeah!). The 'gallon' is made up in volume of (3.78 liters- ya!) which is 3.78 times 35.2 ounces(that's the ounces volume in a liter!). Now an American quart is 32 ounces - yep! 4 quarts amounts to 128 ounces - BLING! Why, you say? Beats me!! Now, an 'Imperial' or 'British' quart is 40 ounces in volume. An 'Imperial' gallon is 160 ounces or exactly 4 'Imperial' quarts!! This is why I'm digressing on the topic - to help - OR - to make it 'clear as mud' - your choice. See, the old-fashioned 'cup' is 8 ounces. In America 2 cups(16 ounces is a pint) - 4 cups is a quart(32 ounces). 'Imperial' measure for a 'cup' is 8(count 'em) ounces, BUT 20 ounces is a pint and 40 ounces is a quart - go figure?? It's a mess for u in the good ol' USA!! Hope I've helped.

CONVERSION FORMULA:
1 in = 2.54 cms
1 ft = 12 in
1 ft = (2.54 cms)(12 in/ft)
1 ft = 30.48 cms
1 kg = 2.2 lbs approx
THEREFORE, THE ANSWER IS:
218 cms / 30.48 cms/ft = 7.15 ft
160 kgs * 2.2 lbs/kgs = 352 lbs approx
