The total length of the brochure is the sum of the three 4 - inch segments, so $4 + 4+4=12$ inches.

Step2: Use area formula

The area $A$ of a rectangle is $A = l\times w$, where $l$ is the length and $w$ is the width. Here, $l = 12$ inches and $w = 9$ inches. So $A=12\times9 = 108$ square inches.

D. 108 square inches
