Answer:

6.45 cm by 1.8 cm

Explanation:

Ratio of label to actual measurement ; 2 : 3

For a flyer label size of 4.3

Actual label size equals :

(Flyer ratio / total ratio) * total size = flyer size

2/5 * x = 4.3

2x / 5 = 4.3

2x = 21.5

x = 21.5 / 2

x = 10.75

Actual size =. 10.75 - 4.3 = 6.45 cm

2/5 * x = 1.2

2x / 5 = 1.2

2x = 6

x = 6 / 2

x = 3

Actual size = 3 - 1.2 = 1.8 cm

6.45 cm by 1.8 cm
