1 foot = 12 inches
1 inch = 2.5 centimeters
1 foot = 12 * 2.5 = 30 centimeters
5 foot = 5 * 30 = 150 centimeters
8 inches = 8 * 2.5 = 20 centimeters
5 foot and 8 inches = 150 + 20 = 170 centimeters

5'8" = 68 inches
1 inch = 2.54 cm.
Therefore 68" x 2.54 cm per inch = 172.72 cm or 1.73 meter

5'8" = 68" = 68*2.54 "/cm = 172.72 cm
Technically, 170 is the correct answer since only two significant figures are required.
