Answer:

6 feet = 1 inch

Explanation:

The actual length of the room = 24 feets

The new scaled lengtb of the room = 4 inches

The scale of a drawing = actual length / scaled or model length

Hence, scale used = 24 feet / 4 inch = 6 feet / 1 inch

The scale of the new drawing :

6 feet : 1 inch

6 feet length of actual room length is equivalent to 1 inch length on the drawing
