If the scale factor changes from 1 box = 6 inches to 1 box = 12 inches, it means that each box now represents twice the length it did before.
Thus, if the length in the scale drawing shown is 10 boxes, the length in the new drawing will be 10 boxes x 2 = 20 boxes.
Therefore, the length of the boxes in the new drawing is 20.
The answer is 20.
