The prism has a volume of 70 mm3. Find the volume of a scaled image with a scale factor of 3. mm3

OpenStudy (mrnood):

the volume in this case is h*w*l (height times width times length) if you scale by 3 then th enew dimensions are 3h * 3w *3l how many times bigger is this than h*w*l?

@mrnood its 1890

OpenStudy (mrnood):

when you scale linear features by n the areas increases by n^2, and the violume increases by n^3 in this case n is 3 so the volume increases by factor od 3^3 = 27 70*27 =1890 so you are correct
