The proportion of the lengths of the print and the postcard is:
6 cm / 4 cm = 15 cm / x
Solving for x:
x = (15 cm * 4 cm) / 6 cm
x = 10 cm
Therefore, the width of the postcard will be 10 centimeters.
Now, we can calculate the area of the postcard:
Area = length * width
Area = 15 cm * 10 cm
Area = 150 square centimeters
Therefore, the area of the postcard will be 150 square centimeters.
