This question already has an answer here:
I'm busy figuring out how to convert centimeters to feet with a php script. I couldn't find anything on the internet so I hope you guys can help. I get the centimeters out of my database like this '182' How can I automatically convert it into 5' 11" ?
Thanks, Julan ter Weele

From the following SO link (not tested by myself):
function getMeasurements($mm) {
$inches = ceil($mm/25.4);
$feet = floor(($inches/12));
$measurement = $feet."'".($inches%12).'"';
return $measurement;
}
Needs to convert to centimeters...
You write a formula. For the record, 1cm is 0.0328084 feet
182 * 0.0328084 = 5.9 feet .9 feet is 10.8
Put the two together and your answer is 5 feet 10.8 inches.
