Answer 1

To convert from a scale of one box equals 4 inches to a scale of one box equals 2 inches, you need to adjust the width based on the new scale.

Given that the original drawing is three boxes wide at a scale of one box equals 4 inches:

1. First, calculate the width in inches at the current scale: \[ \text{Width in inches} = 3 , \text{boxes} \times 4 , \text{inches/box} = 12 , \text{inches} \]

2. Now, to find out how many boxes this width would represent at the new scale, where one box equals 2 inches: \[ \text{Number of boxes} = \frac{12 , \text{inches}}{2 , \text{inches/box}} = 6 , \text{boxes} \]

Therefore, the width of the new drawing would be 6 boxes.

So the answer is: C) 6.
