Question

The volumes of two solids are 135 in3 and 625 in3. Find the similarity ratio.

Please help and show all work thank you.

Answer 1

Formula for ration:


`(Volume_1)/(Volume_2) = \bigg( (Length_1)/(Length_2) \bigg)^3`


`\text {Ratio = } \sqrt[3]{(135)/(625) } = \sqrt[3]{(27)/(125) } = (3)/(5)`


Answer: Ratio = 3 : 5
