Solution

FPS stands for foot, pound and second which are the basic units in the FPS system for length, mass and time respectively.
"foot" is denoted by 'ft'.

1 foot (ft) = 12 inches (in).

This is different from the SI system which uses metre, kg and second for measuring length, mass and time respectively.
