The height of statue is 12.2 inches in Troy's drawing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Actual height of statue = 305 feet

Scale used by Troy;

25 feet = 1 inch

1 feet = $\frac{1}{25}\ inches$

305 feet = $\frac{1}{25}*305 \ inches$

305 feet = $\frac{305}{25}\ inches\\$

305 feet = 12.2 inches

The height of statue is 12.2 inches in Troy's drawing.
