The width in the original scale drawing is 2 boxes, and the scale is 1 box = 15 feet. Therefore, the width in the original scale drawing is 2 * 15 = 30 feet.

To convert to a new scale of 1 box = 5 feet, we divide the original width by the old scale factor and multiply it by the new scale factor:

New width = (30 feet / 15 feet) * 5 feet
= 2 * 5 = 10 feet.

The width in the new scale drawing will be 10 feet.

Answer: 10 feet.
