Question

What is the similarity ratio of two cubes with volumes of 64 cubic centimeters and 125 cubic centimeters?
Answer
1:5
2:3
4:5
16:25
I think it is C.

Answer 1

I don't know what is similarity ratio. If you tell me what it is, I might be of some help.

Answer 2

The similarity ratio is the proportion that you get when you divide any corresponding side of one triangle by its corresponding side in other similar triangle.

Answer 3

but in this case it is a cube

Answer 4

good thing we're dealing with cubes lol

Answer 5

OK, so let us divide the side of the two cubes(we have no other option).
In this case it is:
cube root of 64 : cube root of 125
Which is 4:5

Answer 6

agreed, I never really understood ratios cause i never really paid attention to them. But I think i understand them now. So the answer is C, correct?

Answer 7

Right(at least that's what I think). You might want to confirm this with someone who knows this well.

Answer 8

ok

Answer 9

thanks for your help anyways.

Answer 10

Yes if this is volume if you want the ratio of the lengths of sides then cube root to get answer 4:5

Answer 11

ok ty,
