Question

in a greeting card measuring 15 CM by 10 cm if photograph is pasted leaving MRG in of 1 cm along its border find the area of photograph

Answer 1

Dimension of the Greeting Card is 15 cm × 10 cm

Since Margin from each side is 1 cm

∴ Length of the photograph = Length of Greeting Card - 2 cm [1 cm less from each side of length of Greeting Card]

= 15 cm - 2 cm = 13 cm

Similarly Breadth of the photograph = Breadth of Greeting Card - 2 cm

= 10 cm - 2 cm = 8 cm

∴ Area of Photograph = Length × Breadth

= 13 cm × 8 cm

= 104 cm²
