160 cm = 5 ft 3 in — also written 5'3". Rounded to the nearest eighth of an inch it is 5 ft 3 in. In total that is 62.9921 inches, and in decimal feet it is 5.24934 ft (note that decimal feet are not the same notation as feet-and-inches).
Divide by 2.54 to get total inches, because 1 inch is exactly 2.54 cm: 160 ÷ 2.54 = 62.9921 inches. Then split the inches into feet and inches by dividing by 12: the whole number is the feet (5) and the remainder is the inches (3). So 160 cm = 5 ft 3 in. The converter at the top of this page is preset to 160 cm — change the value to convert any other height.
