Convert to the same units and simplify by dropping the units and dividing the numbers by all comon factors until the only common factor is 1.
1 ft = 12 in
→ 2 in : 4ft
= 2 in : 4 × 12 in
= 2 in : 48 in
= 2 : 48
= 1 : 24
2 in to 4 ft is the same as a scale of 1 to 24.
1 to 16.

It is 2" to 10 ft = 2"/120" = 1/60
Assuming a scale factor of 1 foot to 5 inches, 7 inches would equal 7/5 = 1.4 inches.

9 inches : 27 feet = 9 inches : 27*12 inches = 9 : 324 = 1 : 36
Scale = 100'/1.5" 3.5" * 100'/1.5" = 7*100/3 = 700/3 feet ~= 233.33 feet
If 1 foot equals 12 inches, then 50 inches equals 4.16 feet. If 1 foot equals 12 inches, then 50 inches equals 4.16 feet.
To find the scale of the map, divide 54 inches by 63,360 inches (1 mile in inches) to get a scale of 1:1,177. This means that 1 inch on the map represents 1,177 inches in real life.
Neither of the two is correct. It would be 12 inches equals a foot or 144 inches equals 12 feet.
