Answer:

Use multiplication and dividing.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to convert to a smaller unit, you must multiply.

For example...

4 Feet to Inches:

[tex]4 * 12 =48[/tex] inches

2 Yards to Inches:

[tex]2 * 3 = 6[/tex] feet

[tex]6 * 12 = 72[/tex] inches

If you want to convert to a larger unit, you must divide.

336 Inches to Feet:

[tex]336/12=28[/tex] feet

756 Inches to Yards:

[tex]756/12=63[/tex] feet

[tex]63/3=21[/tex] yards
