You are asking for an input in inches, and treating it as if it was in feet...
Try this:

Python

d_inches = int(input("Enter Inches to convert: "))
d_ft = d_inches / 12.0
d_miles = d_ft / 5280.0
d_yards = d_ft / 3.0


print("The distance in inches is %i inches." % d_inches)
print("The distance in feet is %.1f feet." % d_ft)
print("The distance in yards is %.2f yards." % d_yards)
print("The distance in miles is %.6f miles." % d_miles)

Here is the multiplication table set for conversions. Repeating decimals are signified by a - at the end of the decimal

inch	feet	  yard    mile
_____  ________   _______  ___________
1	    0.0833-	  0.0277-  0.000015782
12	    1	      0.33-	   0.000189394
36	    3	      1	       0.0005681-
