Answer:
3 postcards

Step-by-step explanation:
So the question says that Brenna bought 4 packs of 12 postcards, which is the same as 4x12.

4x12=48, so Brenna bought 48 postcards.

It says that she only needed 45, so we can subtract 45 from 48.

48-45=3

Brenna had three postcards left over.

Hope this helped you!
