OpenStudy (superdavesuper):

Will changing the unit of measurement affect the volume?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it will increase in cubes

OpenStudy (superdavesuper):

wait wait go back - u need to understand whether changing the measurement unit will affect the volume or not. Otherwise u cannot get the right answer. think about it plz?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is c because it dose not menshion a prisum

OpenStudy (superdavesuper):

OK good so u know it is not a or b right. Now which unit is larger, cubic cm or cubic meter?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

meaters

OpenStudy (superdavesuper):

So if cubic meter is larger and the volume stays the same, the number will go up or down?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

up

OpenStudy (superdavesuper):

Think again plz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

down?

OpenStudy (superdavesuper):

So the right answer is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c

OpenStudy (superdavesuper):

Think again plz?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no im correct because meaters are larger so it will go up

OpenStudy (superdavesuper):

Volume stays the same. So if the unit is larger, then the number should go down...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (superdavesuper):
