Saw the following problem Natalia prints, a photo of a covered bridge. The print measure 6 cm x 4 cm she wants to resize the photo into the size of a postcard with a length of 15 cm. What will be the area of the postcard
To find the area of the postcard, we first need to calculate the width of the postcard after resizing the photo.
Given that the original photo measure 6 cm x 4 cm, we can calculate the ratio of the length and width as follows:
6 cm / 4 cm = 1.5
Therefore, the width of the postcard after resizing will be:
15 cm / 1.5 = 10 cm
Now, we can calculate the area of the postcard by multiplying the length and width:
Area = Length x Width
Area = 15 cm x 10 cm
Area = 150 cm²
Therefore, the area of the postcard will be 150 cm².
