To find out how tall the tree will be in Barry's drawing, we need to calculate 1/4 of the height of the tree in the original drawing.
The original tree is 14 inches tall. To find 1/4 of that height, we can multiply the height by 1/4. Mathematically, this can be written as:
(1/4) * 14 inches
To solve this multiplication problem, we simply multiply the two numbers:
(1/4) * 14 = 14/4 = 3.5
So, the tree in Barry's drawing will be 3.5 inches tall.
