Answer:
A 1/4" scale means that each 1/4" (inch) on the plan counts for 1' (feet) of actual physical length.
Step-by-step explanation:
1:4 Scale pronounced: "One Quarter Scale" or One Quarter Size. 1/4 inch on the scale = 1 unit on the object being drawn. By extension, if we use 1/4“ graph paper, one 1/4” block can equal one inch, one foot, one mile, one light year etc. For architecture, 1/4“ usually equals 1' (1/4 inch = 1 foot).
