5 0

1/5=x/4
0.8ft
1/5=x/6
1.2ft
Dimensions are 0.8ft X 1.2ft.

Answer:

The dimensions of the model bed she built are 0.8 feet×1.2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kelly was building a bed for her dollhouse.

She used her bed, which is 4 feet × 6 feet, as a guide.

She scaled down the dimensions of her bed by a factor 1 over 5 i.e. the actual dimension she would have used will be 1/5 times the dimensions of her bed.

4 feet= (1/5)×4=0.8 feet

and 6 feet=(1/5)×6=1.2 feet.

Hence the dimensions of the model bed she built are 0.8 feet×1.2 feet.
