If a person is 65 inches tall, that’s about 5 feet 5 inches. One foot is equal to 12 inches, so 5 feet is equal to 60 inches.
To get an accurate height measurement, shoes, hair accessories, and hair styles that could affect the measurement are taken off. Both feet are flat, and their sides are touching. Their backs are against the wall. The head is kept straight while a flat object is put on top of it. The flat object stays in a position parallel to the floor. The height mark is written down, and a tape measure from the floor to the mark gives an accurate measurement.
