foot

The foot is a unit of length in the British imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. The prime symbol, ???, is commonly used to represent the foot. In both customary and imperial units, one foot comprises 12??inches, and one yard comprises three feet. Since an international agreement in 1959, the foot is defined as equal to exactly 0.3048??meters. The most common plural of foot is feet. However, the singular form may be used like a plural when it is preceded by a number, as in "that man is six foot tall". Footage is the term used informally for a length expressed in feet.
