Solution

We need to convert ft to inches first like this:

[tex]12ft\cdot\frac{12in}{1ft}=144in[/tex]

For this case we can solve the problem with the following proportion:

[tex]\frac{144in}{32in}=\frac{x}{1in}[/tex]

So then the model present the following size:

[tex]x=\frac{144}{32}=4.5in[/tex]
