They are both as precise as the measuring tools. Precision is affected by the error introduced by the measurement or in a dimension, often known as the tolerance.
A measurement in inches has a greater resolution than one in feet. 12 times the resolution in fact. However, a measurement of 178 inches that can be up to 15% out is not as precise as a measurement of 12 feet with a 1% possible error.

What numbers can 178 be divided by?
Well, honey, 178 can be divided by 1, 2, 89, and 178 itself. That's it, no more, no less. So, if you were hoping for some exciting divisors, I'm sorry to disappoint. But hey, at least you know the facts now.
When converting from a larger unit to a smaller unit why does the value of the measurement increase?
Because in any given measurement, there are more of the smaller units than bigger units. There are less than 2 metres in my height (1.78 m). But in a smaller unit, eg centimetre, there are is 178 of them. That is a staggering 1780000 micrometres tall :) But, then again, that is only 0.00178 kilometres :(
