(6 - 2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3
6 - (2 - 1) = 6 - 1 = 5
The associative rule doesn't work for subtraction because you get different results when you move the parentheses.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When we divide congruent sides of similar solids or plane figures we get the linear scale factor.
The square of the linear scale factor gives the area scale factor while it's cube gives the volume scale factor.
In this question, the linear scale factor will be 6/5
since we are asked to find the volume we cube the linear scale factor.
(6/5)³=216/125
to get the volume of the larger prism we multiply the volume of the smaller by the V.S.L as shown
(216/125)×300in³= 518.4in³
