Answer:

Lets say you have a scale of 2 actual feet is equal to 1 graph inch. And lets say you have a perimeter of 24 inches. You know that for every inch I have graphed, it's an actual 2 feet. So if you multiply those 24 inches by 2, then you will get 48. And you need to change the units to match the description, so I will need to change inches to feet. This will get me 48 feet of perimeter in real life.
