Pool tables are not measured in meters. Their size is given in feet and all pool table measurements are officially in inches. Converting the inches to meters has no useful purpose as there are no meter rules that can be used for pool table dimensions of fractions of an inch. This conversion only has the purppose of a child's practice in mathematical calculations.
To convert the dimensions of the pool from inches to feet, divide each measurement by 12. Therefore, a pool that is 14 inches by 42 inches is approximately 1.17 feet by 3.5 feet.
It was not a pool table if it only had 4 pockets if it was made since about 1800. A 4 pocket table is most likely a bumper pool table.

This measurement indicates the length and width of the table itself, rather than just the playing surface. However, in specific contexts, such as pool or ping pong tables, it may sometimes refer to the playing surface size. Always check the context to confirm.
