The dimensions of the model bed that she want for her doll is 0.6 feet x 1 feet.

Fractional Dimension:

If the original dimension of the bed of Kathy is 3 feet x 5 feet that is the length is of 3 feet and the width is of 5 feet units.

If the dimensions are scaled down by a factor 1 over 5 then the length as well as width will reduced \(\frac{1}{5}\) units.

How to find reduced dimensions?

First calculate the length

original length = 3 feet

Reduced by \(\frac{1}{5}\) then new length will be \(3.\frac{1}{5} =0.6\)

The original width = 5 feet

Reduced by \(\frac{1}{5}\) then the new width will be = \(5.\frac{1}{5} =1\)

Therefore new dimension is

0.6 feet x 1 feet

Hence the final answer is 0.6 feet x 1 feet
