Answer:

  108 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length in inches of the perimeter of the model is ...

  7 in + 3 in + 3 in + 5 in = 18 in

The total length of the walkway will have the same ratio to this perimeter that the corresponding sides have:

  EF/AB = 42 ft/(7 in) = (walkway length)/(18 in)

Multiplying by 18 in, we get ...

  walkway length = (42 ft)(18 in)/(7 in)

  walkway length = 108 ft
