Question

Is the area of your belt the same as the area of the postcard? Why or why not?

Sum

Solution

 Area of the belt of 3 cm wide strip = length x breadth

= 3 × 42

= 126 square cm

Yes, this is equal to the area of the postcard.

In fact, area of all the belts would be equal to the area of the postcard; because every part of the postcard is being used in making a belt.
