Question

The volume of a box is 247. 8 in3. Find the volume of a larger, similarly shaped box that has a scale factor of 3

Answer 1

6690.6 cubic inches

Explanation:

if the volume of smaller is 247.8 then volume of larger is given by:

V (larger) = k³ V (smaller), where k is scale factor.

v (larger) = (3)³ (247.8)

= 27 X 247.8

= 6690.6 cubic inches
