Let me think.................

Okay! 

To compare two lengths that are measured in different sizes, you need to find out how many of one measurement goes into another. 

Say if you have a scale factor of 6ft = 4yd. That doesn't mean that really does. You need to find out the inches or how many feet are in 4yds. 

AS SHOWN:

6ft = 72in

4yd = 12ft --------- 12ft + 144in. 

But if you want to keep it simple, 6ft = 12ft because 4yd equals 12ft.

If this helps please say so if not...........then to bad.
