Answer 1

The answer is: 1/6 ft.
____________________
Step-by-step explanation:
_____________
25 inches : 25 ft:: (1/6) inch: x (ft).

So: 25/25 = (1/6) / x ; solve for "x" ;
_______________________________
Note: the "25/25" cancel to '1", so we have:

1 = (1/6) / x ;

(1/6) ÷ x = 1 ;

1*x = x = 1/6.
