Answer:

<h2>The final width of the photo is 48 centimeters.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

The initial width is 3 centimeters.
When you enlarge the photo, its width doubled.
You enlarge the photo four times.

According to the problem, each enlargement represents a doubled width. Now, if you enlarge it four times, that means we need to make a progession, where the initial number is three

$3 \times 2=6\\6 \times 2 =12\\12 \times 2=24\\24 \times 2=48$

Therefore, after four enlargements, the width of the photo is 48 centimeters.
