inches

The scale model giraffe is 5 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the artist sculpted the figure of the giraffe with a scale of 1 inch = 4 feet, and that the real giraffe that lives in the zoo is about 20 feet, to determine the size of the sculpted giraffe to scale it is necessary to perform the following calculation:

20/4 = X

5 = X

Thus, the scale sculpted giraffe that will be sold in the gift shop measures 5 inches.
