    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
