Just take your original measurement and multiply it by the correct conversion factor. Make sure to keep the units you want to end up with in the denominator of the conversion factor.

Example:

Converting miles to feet

(26.2 mi) x (5280 ft/1 mi) = 138336 ft.

Converting feet to miles

(138336 ft) x (1 mi/5280 ft) = 26.2 mi.
