The original photo's area is 6 cm x 4 cm = 24 square cm.
To resize the photo into a postcard with a length of 15 cm, we need to keep the aspect ratio the same. So, we can calculate the width of the postcard using the proportion:
Width of postcard / Length of postcard = Width of photo / Length of photo
Let the width of the postcard be x cm.
x / 15 = 6 / 4
x = 22.5 cm
Therefore, the area of the postcard will be 22.5 cm x 15 cm = 337.5 square cm.
None of the options provided is correct. The correct answer is 337.5 square centimeters.
