Answer:
[tex]\bold{\dfrac{63}{32}\ sq\ inches}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Width of stamp = [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex] inches
Length of stamp = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] inches
It is well known that a stamp is in the form of a rectangular shape.
Area of a rectangular shape is given by the following formula:
[tex]Area = Width\times Length[/tex]
Also, there are 3 identical stamps on the envelop, therefore we need to find the area of one stamp and then multiply it with 3 to find the required area.
Required area:
[tex]3\times \dfrac{7}{8}\times \dfrac{3}{4}\\\Rightarrow \bold{\dfrac{63}{32}\ sq\ inches}[/tex]
