Question

Two Similar solids are shown.


What is the volume of the larger solid?

Answer 1

the ratio of the linear measurement is 4:8 or 1:2

for volume you need to find the cube of both sides of the scale ratio

\[(1)^3:(2)^3\]

this will show how many times larger the volume of the right solid is..

so the volume is

\[512 \times (2)^3\]
