1/4":1' = 1/4" : 1'= 1:48
So the dimensions of the model are
L=80'/48=960"/48=20"
W=32'/48=384/48=8"

Answer: Length = 20 inches

Width = 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

By Tim's scale, 1 foot equals 1/4 inch

Dimensions of his model doll house would be:

Width = (32 feet/ 1 foot) x (¼ inch)

Width = 32/4 = 8 inches

Length = (80 feet/1 foot) x (¼ inch)

Length = 80/4 = 20 inches

8 inches by 20 inches doll house.
