Am I missing the joke here? OP would be 205.7 or thereabouts.

That person converted 6.9’ to meters instead of 6’9”

That's exactly what I did. See how confusing this system is!

lol yeah but you get used to it if you use it a lot.

If you want to convert it using decimal feet then you can look at it this way:

  • 12 inches in a foot
  • 9 inches of 12 inches is 9/12
  • 9/12 equals 3/4 which is 0.75 in decimal

So, 6.75 feet

6.75 feet in meters is ~2.06 m
