Regarding the conversion Factor from Architectural drawing to decimal drawing, if the Drawing is already prepared in Architecture Method so the best option is mention in Syed Shan Haider Answer and i endorse his answer.

AutoCAD deals in units, but is indifferent as to what those units are — until it comes time to print or share files. In the United States, architects work in inches for units, while civil engineers work in feet, and these two groups often have to share files.

If the third-party file that you need to insert into your file also has the appropriate setting set, AutoCAD will automatically scale the file for you. Use the Insert command to insert the file as you would a block. Type InsUnits on the Command line and make the appropriate setting choice.
