How can I make memoQ to convert inches to centimetres automatically ?

I know it is done from Auto-translation rules, but I could not find an step-by-step method for doing it.

Note that I don't know how to construct regex expressions, if that is the point involved.

I haven't done it myself, but the process is described here: https://docs.memoq.com/current/en/Places/edit-auto-translation-rule-set.html

You will probably need to use regular expressions, they are not that complicated.
