To find the area of Alfredo's scale drawing, we need to calculate the scale factor first.

Scale factor = Length of top edge of original poster / Length of top edge of scale drawing
Scale factor = 24 / 6 = 4

Now, since the area is proportional to the square of the scale factor, we can find the area of Alfredo's scale drawing by squaring the scale factor and multiplying by the area of the original poster.

Area of Alfredo's scale drawing = (Scale factor)^2 * Area of original poster
Area of Alfredo's scale drawing = 4^2 * 48 = 16 * 48 = 768

Therefore, the area of Alfredo's scale drawing is 768, which is not one of the answer choices provided.
