If a length is 6 ft, approximately how many meters is it?

• A. 0.914 m
• B. 1.0 m
• C. 1.828 m
• D. 3.0 m

Answer: (C)

To convert feet to meters, use the factor 1 foot ≈ 0.3048 meters. Multiply 6 by 0.3048 to get 1.8288 meters. Since the question asks for an approximate value, this is about 1.83 meters, and the option near 1.828 meters matches closely. You can also check by intuition: 3 feet is about 0.914 meters, so 6 feet should be about twice that, around 1.828 meters. The other numbers are far from what six feet converts to.
