1inch = 7.5 ft

1 7.5

-- = ----- - set up the problem

x 12

7.5x = 12

x = 12/7.5

x = 1.6 inches or approximately 1 5/8 inch

for the 26

to save time

x = 26/7.5

x = 3.4666.... or approximately 3 1/2 inch

the scale drawing for the floor is 1 5/8 inches by 3 1/2 inches or 1.6 inch by 3 .466 inches
