To find the width of the bottom margin, we need to subtract the height of the printed area and the top margin from the total height of the page.
Total height of the page = 9 inches
Top margin = 0.5625 inches
Printed area height = 7.75 inches
Bottom margin = Total height of the page - Top margin - Printed area height
Bottom margin = 9 - 0.5625 - 7.75
Bottom margin = 9 - 0.5625 - 7.75
Bottom margin = 0.6875 inches
Therefore, the width of the bottom margin is 0.6875 inches.
To find the width of the margins at the bottom of each page, we need to subtract the height of the printed area from the total height of the page.
Given:
Height of the page = 9 inches
Height of the printed area = 7.75 inches
Subtracting the height of the printed area from the height of the page:
9 inches - 7.75 inches = 1.25 inches
Therefore, the width of the margins at the bottom of each page is 1.25 inches.
