Tranquility:
You just need to find the ratio between 16 to 1458.
Recall that,
a to b is the same thing as a:b or a/b
Comerpickles:
So 16:1458, what do I do next?
Tranquility:
You need to simplify it. Can you find any common factors between 16 and 1458?

Comerpickles:
8/729
Tranquility:
That's correct! They both had a factor of 2. And there are no other factors because 8 = 2^3 and 729 = 9^3
Comerpickles:
Okie, thanks
Tranquility:
My pleasure!
Comerpickles:
Answer was wrong, somehow

What was given as the correct answer?
Tranquility:
@Vocaloid Can you confirm?
Comerpickles:
It doesn't say, it just says that D was incorrect
Tranquility:
1458 * 8/729 = 16
And the units are the same for both.
Mhmm
Vocaloid:
you have to be careful with scale factors
for volume, increasing by scale factor x results in a volume increase of x^3
so it's actually the cube root of (8/729)
