if the volume ratio of two similar pyramids is 125 to 27 and the area of the larger is by 64. what is the area of the smaller figure?

OpenStudy (radar):

\[\sqrt[3]{125/27?}=5/3\]\[\sqrt{64/x ^{2}}=5/3\]\[8/x = 5/3\]5x=24 x=24/5 sq. in.

OpenStudy (radar):

ignore that question mark in the first radical, a typo.

no multiple choice

OpenStudy (radar):

24/5=4.8 Volume would be a cubed ratio. Area would be a squared ratio.
