The conversion factor is 1 meter = 39.37 inches.

Step2: Multiply the height in meters by the conversion factor

To find the height in inches, we multiply the height in meters (1.93) by the number of inches in one meter (39.37). So the calculation is $1.93\times39.37$.
Calculating $1.93\times39.37$:
First, $1\times39.37 = 39.37$, $0.9\times39.37=35.433$, $0.03\times39.37 = 1.1811$.
Then add them together: $39.37+35.433 + 1.1811=75.9841\approx75.98$.

Answer:

75.98
