I'm a relatively new Kindle user, and the only way I know to do it is by using the Kindle's browser to go to a site like convertunits.com.

Quick answer, there is no way to change the text in an ebook on the kindle. If it is a help 1 foot is 30cm. 1 inch is 2.5cm.
A yard is 7.5 cm shorter than a meter. 3 feet is a yard.
