The radius on the plan is 6 feet, hence the diameter will be

diameter on plan  = 6*2 = 12 feet

Given Data

First pool

Radius of pool on Plan/Blue Print = 5 inches

actual Radius = 20 feet

Second pool

Radius of pool on Plan/Blue Print = ???

actual Radius = 24 feet

From the first pool, we can see that the Proposed Radius is 4 time the Planned radius

Hence, for the second pool let us apply similar logic

Actual radius = 4*x

24 = 4x

divide both sides by 4

x = 24/4

x = 6 feet

Diameter = 6*2 = 12 feet
