Question

The surface areas of two similar solids are 321 yd2 and 1117 yd2. The volume of the larger solid is 1772 yd3. What is the volume of the smaller solid?

A) 1,772 yd3
B) 950 yd3
C) 764 yd3
D) 273 yd3

Answer 1

This is the same concept as the last one. Find the ratio of their dimensions.

Answer 2

Or rather it's easier, cause you are given their areas. Find the ratio of their areas. Then use it to figure out the ratio of their volumes.

Answer 3

17.9

Answer 4

33.4

Answer 5

so what now?

Answer 6

I think you mean 3.4 not 33.4?

Answer 7

right

Answer 8

Ok, now how are the ratio of their areas related to the ratio of their dimensions again? (This goes back to the last problem).
