Question

the volume of two similar prisms are 891 cm and 33cm. the surface area of the larger prism is 153cm. what is the surface area ont he smaller prism?

Answer 1

[891/33=27]  ratio of the two prism:    hencesurface area of smaller prism is[153/27]=5.67cm

Answer 2

Ratio of volume =891:33
=891/33
Ratio of area =153:x
=153/x
Since the area and volume are of the same prism then 891/33=153/x
X=17
