Remember...
If we are going from big units to small units, we MULTIPLY because we will need lots of those small units.
If we are going from small units to big units, we DIVIDE because we won't need that many of those large units.
Conversion factors:
12 inches in 1 foot
3 feet in 1 yard, 36 inches in 1 yard
5280 feet in 1 mile, 1760 yards in 1 mile
