JavaScript Feet to Meters and Meters to Feet Converter

One foot equals exactly 0.3048 meters. Convert feet to meters by multiplying by 0.3048; convert meters to feet by dividing by 0.3048.

const meters = feet * 0.3048;
const feet = meters / 0.3048;

Reusable conversion functions Top ↑

function feetToMeters(feet) {
  return feet * 0.3048;
}
function metersToFeet(meters) {
  return meters / 0.3048;
}

Validate text input before converting Top ↑

Form values should be checked before calculation. An empty field should not silently become zero.

function readFiniteNumber(raw) {
  if (raw.trim() === "") return null;
  const value = Number(raw);
  return Number.isFinite(value) ? value : null;
}

See numeric input validation for more comparison examples.

Round only the displayed result Top ↑

Keep the full numeric result for later calculations and format only when presenting it. toFixed() returns a string.

const result = feetToMeters(6.25);
console.log(result);             // full Number
console.log(result.toFixed(2));  // formatted string

How the interactive converter works Top ↑

Each button reads the same input and chooses one conversion direction. Event listeners keep JavaScript out of inline HTML attributes, and textContent safely writes the result.

Continue with inches to centimeters and numeric validation.
