Question

What is the similarity ratio of a cube with volume 1000 to a cube with volume 4096?

Answer 1

Tagging this so I can come back to it and answer.

Answer 2

Alright, lets get to business.

Similarity means the sides, which are the cube roots of the volumes. That is 10:16 which you reduce to 5:8.

Answer 3

Okay. I think im starting to get this. Ratios has been my weakest subsubject of Geometry.

Answer 4

>Implying anyone likes ratios.

We all agree with you. Ratios suck.

Answer 5

This is all I did:

(1000/4096)^(1/3) = 5/8

(since we're finding a cube, I cube it, makes sense?)
