You cannot convert a single measure into a non-trivial fraction. You need another measure so that one of the measures can be represented as a fraction of the other.

The qualification "non-trivial" was added because any number, for example 7, can be written as a 7/1 in fractional form.

You have to multiply by the conversion factor, for example, 1/4 foot X 12 inches/foot = 12/4 = 3 inches. Example #2: 1/3 yard x 36 inches/yard = 36/3 = 12 inches.
