To find the area of the resized photo on the postcard, we need to calculate the new width of the photo based on the aspect ratio (proportions) of the original photo.
Original aspect ratio: 6 cm / 4 cm = 1.5
New width of the photo: 15 cm / 1.5 = 10 cm
Area of the postcard = 10 cm * 15 cm = 150 square centimeters
Therefore, the area of the postcard is 150 square centimeters. The answer is:
• 150 square centimeters
