Final answer:

Without the actual scale drawing, it is not possible to definitively answer where Gianna should install the cabinets. The scale given is 0.25 inch for every 2 feet, but the location of the cabinets on the drawing is not provided in the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine where Gianna should install the cabinets in her craft room according to the scale drawing, we first need to understand the scale used in the drawing. Gianna's scale drawing indicates that 0.25 inch represents 2 feet. To calculate the distance on the drawing, we can use the same type of conversion.

For instance, if the room is 12 feet by 15 feet, and Gianna uses a scale where 0.25 inch equals 2 feet, then on her drawing, the room would be mapped out to be 1.5 inches by 1.875 inches (6 segments of 0.25 inch by 7.5 segments of 0.25 inch). However, since the location of the cabinets is not given in the question, we cannot determine specifically where Gianna should install the cabinets without seeing the actual scale drawing mentioned.
