sizing photos

I see that this issue has already been addressed, at least peripherally, but I can't seem to get it. Can someone explain in explicit -- even exquisite -- detail?

I have a photo from Olympus Camedia C-5000. It is, of course, huge -- tremendous. Usually something like 35" by, oh, maybe 26".
I want a (for example) 8 x 10 inch print. Not sure how much you need to know, but I'm using Gimp 2.2.2
Linux, SuSE 9.2
HP Deskjet 5550
How do I take this hugh image and give it a size that will print and then fit into a standard frame, such as 5 x 7 (inches) or 8 x 10 (inches) ?
Thanks,
Helen
