The length in the scale drawing is given as 10 boxes.
If the scale factor changes from 1 box = 6 inches to 1 box = 12 inches, that means each box in the new drawing will represent double the length compared to the original drawing.
Therefore, the length of the boxes in the new drawing will be 10 boxes * 2 = 20 inches.
The correct answer is 20.
