GEOMETRY QUESTION: Christina has two similar Cubical Planters, Cube A and Cube B. The side of Cube A is 20ft., and the side of Cube B is 4ft. What is the ratio of the volume of Cube A to the volume of Cube B? Show your work, give your answer in percentage.

Respuesta :

Cube a to cube b is 1:3.  This is a one-to-one measure.  If we want volume ratios, we have to take the one-to-one ratios and cube them.  Like this: which simplifies to .  This means that the volume of the smaller object is 27 times smaller than the volume of the larger.
