Question

given the scale factor of 61.1 for two rectangular prisms, what would the valume factor be? Round to one's decimals place

Answer 1

For three dimensional figures, the volume factor is the scale factor to the third power.

So if the scale factor is 61.1, the volume factor is:

`\text{Volume factor}=(61.1)^3=228099.131`

Rounding to one decimal place, the volume factor is 288,099.1
