The volumes of two similar solids are 47 cm3 and 5875 cm3. What is the ratio of the corresponding sides?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

that should be the cuberoot of ratio of the volumes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if the ratio of volumes is 47 : 5875 thus the ratio of the corresponding sides will be cuberoot(47) : cuberoot(5875)= 1: 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

these are my options

OpenStudy (anonymous):

choose 5, its obvious isnt it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does that mean that the ratio is 5/1 which equals 5 simplified ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
