    The actual diameter will be 5 feet.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The fountain is 10 feet tall, which is 120 inches. If you divide 120 inches by the model's 15 inches, you get 8. So, the ratio is for every 1 inch of the model, you have 8 inches on the actual fountain. You can then multiply 7.5 by 8 to find the diameter of the actual fountain.
