0.25 feet by 0.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the scale of the drawing in inches as:

3 inches by 6 inches

convert inches to feet using the conversion factor

1 feet = 12inches

Convert 3inches to feet

1 feet = 12inches

x feet = 3 inches

Cross multiply

12x = 3

x = 3/12

x = 1/4

x = 0.25fet

Convert 6 inches to feet

1 feet = 12inches

x feet = 6 inches

Cross multiply

12x = 6

y = 6/12

y = 1/2

y = 0.5 feet

Hence the scale of the drawing in inches is 0.25 feet by 0.5 feet
