A cube has side length a. The side lengths are decreased to 20% of their original size. Write an expression in simplest form for
the volume of the new cube in terms of a.
2 answers:
Volume of the original cube is a³ .
That's (a · a · a) .
If you decrease the sides to 20% of their original size,
then the new volume is (0.2a · 0.2a × 0.2a).
That's 0.008a³ or (0.2a)³ .
Take your choice. I can't decide which one is simpler.
20% is mean you have a cube of 80%
So 80%=0.8
That means the volume of the new cube is (0.8)3 I mean multiply 0,8x0.8x0.8 = 0.512a cubic unit
