Answer:

1.99metres

Explanation:

Foot and inches are measurements of heights. A height measurement of 6’6 1/2" means I am 6 foot and 6.5 inches tall.

Firstly, we need to convert the foot and inches measurement to all foot.

Since 1 foot = 12 inches

Then, the 6.5 inches is 6.5/12

= 0.5416foot

We add this to the existing feet measurement, i.e. 6 foot + 0.5416 foot

= 6.5416 foot.

Hence, 6'6.5" means 6.5416'

Now, we convert the foot measurement to metres.

1 foot makes 30.48 cm

Since 100 cm makes 1 m

30.48 cm will be 30.48/100= 0.3048m

Hence, 1 foot = 0.3048m

6.5416 foot = 6.5416 × 0.3048 m

= 1.9938

Therefore, a height measurement of 6’6 1/2" is 1.99 metres tall.
