Huh? That question is a little vague.
I'll try to be more specific. Lay a minifig down on its back. You will
see that it's five studs high. An average adult human is about 1.7
meters (or 5 feet, 7 inches) tall. Divide 1.7 meters by 5 studs, and
you get 0.35 meters per stud.
A *brick* (vertical dimension) is 6/5 as tall as the distance between
studs. So one brick, in minifig scale, is 0.42 meters tall.
