Answer
Yes, 180 cm is approximately 5 feet and 11 inches
Work Step by Step
If we use the conversion rate
$1\text{ft}=12\text{ in}$:
$5\text{ ft } 11\text{ in}= 5\times 12 \text{ in}+11 \text{ in}=71 \text{ in}$
Now we can convert from inches to centimeters to check the equivalency, we have to consider the following conversion rate:
$ 1\text{ in}= 2.54 \text{ cm}$
We multiply both sides by 71 in order to get the answer to the question:
$71 \text{ in} =71\times 2.54 \text{ cm} = 180.34 \text{ cm}$
Yes, 180 cm is approximately 5 feet and 11 inches.
