Question

The Area Ratio of two similar solids is 169: 289. If the volume of the smaller solid is 689,858 cm, what is the volume of the larger solid?

Answer 1

1,542,682 cm^3.

Explanation:

The scale factor = √169:√289

= 13:17

So the Volume ratio is 13^3:17^3

So the volume of the larger solid is 689,858 * (17^3/13^3)

= 1,542,682 cm^3.
