The answer is
1/3^3
And
1/27
And
3^-3
The answer I think it would be -6 right?
If you notice, the container is really just two circles, with a diameter of 4 each, and a square with sides of 10.5.
now, if we just get the area of each circle, keeping in mind their radius is half of the diameter, namely r = 2, and get the area of the 10.5x10.5 square, sum them up, that'd be the surface area of the container.
Larger PyramidHeight 24 Volume 648
Pyramid Volume = (Area of the Base * Height) ÷ 3648 = Base Area * 24 / 3Base Area = 648 * 3 / 24Base Area = 648 / 8Base Area = 81Base Length = 9

**********************************************************************************c)
Smaller PyramidHeight 8Surface Area = 124
This pyramid has dimensions that are one third of the larger pyramid.Therefore, it has a base length of 3.Base Area = 9.
Its base perimeter would be 12.
Small Pyramid Volume = (Area of the Base * Height) ÷ 3Small Pyramid Volume = ( 9 * 8 ) / 3Small Pyramid Volume = 72 / 3
c) Small Pyramid Volume =24 cubic meters
d) Ratio of larger pyramid volume to smaller pyramid volume648 / 24 = 27The reason? Volume is a 3 dimensional quantity. The Larger pyramid is 3 times larger in terms of the base measurement.9 meters vs 3 meters - a factor of 3When we compare volumes, we have to cube this factor.3^3 = 27

I’m pretty sure there are infinite solutions as the system of equations are equivalent to each other.
