It is almost always easier to convert to inches, then convert to feet later. However, you can directly convert to feet if you have a calculator, which may be more accurate, too. To check your work, know now that 180cm is roughly 5'10 in feet.

You can make this slightly more precise by subtracting 1% from your initial number. So, instead of using 180cm, use 178. 2cm. This is extra helpful if, instead of 180 cm, you get something more difficult, like 182cm. Knowing it will overestimate, cut it to 180. When using precise decimals, 180 cm = 5’ 10. 9". When estimating using the above methods, 180 = roughly 6 feet. They are only about an inch off – but they are still different.
