1 answer

If 1 box = 3 inches and the length in the scale drawing shown is 8 boxes, then the length in inches is 8 boxes * 3 inches/box = 24 inches.
To convert the scale to 1 box = 6 inches, the length in inches will remain the same, so the length in boxes of the new scale drawing will be 24 inches / 6 inches/box = <<24/6=4>>4 boxes. Answer: \boxed{4}.
