To convert the measurements of the rectangle from a scale of 1 box = 5 feet to a scale of 1 box = 10 feet, we need to adjust the dimensions accordingly.

The original rectangle has dimensions of:
- Length: 8 units
- Width: 6 units

In feet, using the original scale:
- Length in feet = 8 units × 5 feet/unit = 40 feet
- Width in feet = 6 units × 5 feet/unit = 30 feet

Now, to represent this on a new scale of 1 box = 10 feet, we need to convert the dimensions back into units based on the new scale:

- Length in units = 40 feet ÷ 10 feet/unit = 4 units
- Width in units = 30 feet ÷ 10 feet/unit = 3 units

So, the new dimensions for the rectangle on the new scale should be:
- Length: 4 units
- Width: 3 units

Thus, the correct option that reflects the new scale drawing is:

**A grid is shown with a rectangle drawn on it. The rectangle is 4 units long and 3 units wide, labeled with 4 and 3 respectively. Scale: 1 box = 10 feet.**

This corresponds to the last option presented.
