If 1 inch = 1 foot then 1 foot = 1 inch.
With this, you can make a ratio of 1 foot:1 inch, or 1:1.
Starting with the first dimension, 27 feet, just change the 1 to 27 in the ratio.
27:?
To find how many inches this is in the scale drawing, find how much 1 had to be multiplied by to get to 27. This is 27, since anything times 1 is itself.
Just multiply the other side by 27 as well to get the answer for the first dimension.
1 • 27 = 27
So 27 feet = 27 inches in the scale drawing.
Now do the same for the second dimension.
1:1
20:?
1 • 20 = 20
20:20
The answer is that the scale drawing has dimensions of 27 inches by 20 inches if 1 inch = 1 foot is the scale

The surface areas of two similar solids are 169 m2 and 81 m2. the volume of the larger solid is 124.92 m3. which proportion corr
ikadub [295]

By finding the scale factor, we will see that the volume of the smaller solid is 86.75 m³.

<h3>How to get the volume of the smaller solid?</h3>

If the solids are similar, then there is a scale factor between the two. Then the relation between the areas is equal to the scale factor squared, and the relation between the volumes is equal to the scale factor cubed.

This means that if the areas are 169 m² and 81 m², then we can write:

169 m² = (k²)*81 m²

Solving for k, we get:

k = √(169 m²/81 m²) = 1.44

Then if the volume of the large solid is 124.92m³ we can write:

124.92m³ = k³*V

Replacing k and solving for V we get:

124.92m³ = (1.44)³*V

(124.92m³/ (1.44)³) = V = 86.75 m³
