  The answer would be 2 inches.
 The ratio of the model to the real figure is 1 feet to 12 feet, since 15 divided by 1.25 is 12. And since 24 inches = 2 feet, 2 divided by 12 would equal 1/6 feet, which would equals 2 inches.

In order to create an accurate model, the radius of the tires on his model car should be 2 feet.

How to create an accurate model?

In order to create an accurate model, the corresponding dimensions should be in proportion.

So, (Length of the actual car)/ (radius of the tire of the actual car) =  (Length of the model car)/ (radius of the tire of the model car)

Suppose the radius of the model tire is x.

So, [tex]\frac{15}{24} =\frac{1.25}{x}[/tex]

So, x=2.

Therefore, In order to create an accurate model, the radius of the tires on his model car should be 2 feet.
