the correct question in the attached figure

we know that
the scale is 1 in (scale drawing)= (1/2) foot (actual)-----> 1/(1/2)=2 in/ft
[scale]=[scale drawing]/[actual]
then
[scale drawing]=[scale]*[actual]
therefore
for  actual width of the car  8 ft
[scale drawing]=[2 in/ft]*[8 ft]=16 in

the answer is 16 in
