The puzzle as a rectangle must fit inside the board as a rectangle.

First we must convert the board's dimensions from ft to cm. There are 30.48 cm in a foot, so the board is 76.2 cm x 45.72 cm. Since the board's length and with are greater than the puzzle's length and width, the puzzle will fit on the board.

Margins:
76.2 - 51.75 = 24.45 / 2 = 12.225
45.72 - 36.51 = 9.21 / 2 = 4.605
