Okay so first thing you'll have to find is the scale, I mean how much smaller it is scaled down.

So from 60 and 4,
60 divided by what you get 4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
15
sam (.sam.):
Good, now you can find the sides of the actual walkway by using 15 multiplied by each sides
OpenStudy (anonymous):
30-30-45-60
sam (.sam.):
45 is EH right?

Yep you got it :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
would it be 9 or 10? when you round 9.49 to the nearest whole number?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@.Sam.
sam (.sam.):
9, since the number on the right side is not 5 and up
