Answer 2

Answer:

Option (C)

The new wall will be 42 foot  long

Explanation:

Given a 14-foot wall in reality equals 2 inches in drawing

And a new wall has to be built that measures 6 inches in the drawing

According to the question

2 inches (in drawing) = 14-foot (in reality)

6-inces (in drawing) = $\frac{(14\times6)}{2}$ = 42 foot

Therefore, the wall that measures  6 inches in the drawing will be 42 foot long in reality
