Since your scale is 1ft:1.26cm, a 30-ft tall school would need to have a 30*1.26=37.8 cm model. Dividing this by how tall each toothpick is, you'll get:

\frac{37.8}{6.3} =6

ANSWER: The model would be 6 toothpicks tall.

To find out how many cotton swabs you'll need, we just divide 37.8 by how tall each swab is:

\frac{37.8}{7.7} =5

ANSWER: The model would be 5 cotton swabs tall.
