Answer:

The dimension will be 3.1 inches by 3.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1 inch = 14 feet

x inch = 1 feet

Cross multiply

14x = 1

x = 1 / 14

x = 0. 07143 inch

Therefore 0.07143 inch will give 1 feet

Hence,

44 feet = 44 x 0.07143

            = 3.143 inches

50 feet = 50 x 0.07143

             = 3.572 inches

The dimension will be 3.1 inches by 3.6 inches
