I'm wanting to build a 53' box trailer scaled down to 1:14 and the number in inches I came up with is 45.4". 53x12=636÷14=45.4......…

Never mind I already answered my own question. Not sure how to delete this.

Useless you like to do a lot of math, which is cool, there are all kinds of scale calculators online that work great and are free.

I have previously searched for a scale calculator but wasn't sure how to word it. I reworded my question in the search and found that scale Calculator and showed my math was correct. Its the same formula Ives been using in the past and I just needed a way to double check myself.

Thanks for your time gentlemen I always appreciate the help. (Fill in the blank.)_________ knows that I could use it.
