Will give Medal, and Fan for Best Answer!!!! Amelia sees two cubic sculptures. She estimates the edge length of the larger sculpture is between 2.5 and 3 times the edge length of the smaller one. How much greater should she estimate the volume of the larger sculpture to be? Explain

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

Can you draw a picture to start?

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):

yes

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

ok so draw a quick pic, then label with the given. Let's say that the small cube has side length x.

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):
