The width in the original drawing is 3 boxes. Since the scale is 1 box = 4 inches, the width in inches can be calculated by multiplying 3 by 4, which equals 12 inches.
To convert to the new scale of 1 box = 2 inches, we need to divide the width in inches by 2.
12 inches / 2 = 6 boxes.
Therefore, the width in boxes of the new drawing will be 6.
So the correct answer is 06.
