Answer:

1 : 18

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding scale factor, both measurements should in same unit

Circumference of the model bell = 8 inches

1 feet = 12 inches

12 feet = 12 * 12 = 144 inches

Circumference of the actual bell = 12feet = 144 inches

Model  : Actual = 8 : 144

                           = 8÷8 : 144÷8

                           = 1 :  18
