The answer is:
_______________________________________________________
The dimensions are:
"3.75 in. by 4 in."
{that correspond to a room that is "15 feet by 16 feet", respectively.}.
____________________________________________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
_________________________________________
The scale is: 0.25 in : 1 ft.
_______________________________________________
0.25 in /1 ft= x in /15 ft ; x = (0.25)*(15) in. = 3.75 in. ;
_______________________________________________

0.25 in/ 1 ft = x in/ 16 ft ; x = (0.25)*(16) in.
= (¼)*(16) in. = (16/4) in.
= 4 in. ;
__________________________________________________________
So, the answer is: The dimensions are "3.75 in. by 4 in."
{that correspond to a room that is 15 feet by 16 feet, respectively.}.
