4.
The ratio is 3/4 for corresponding dimensions, the ratio of their surface areas is equal to the square of this ratio:

Simplify the exponent:

Cross multiply:

Divide 9 to both sides:

So the surface area of the second solid is 54 square meters.
The ratio is 3/4 for corresponding dimensions, the ratio of their volumes is equal to the cube of this ratio:

Simplify the exponent:

Cross multiply:

Divide 64 to both sides:

5.
A globe is a sphere, use the formula for the volume of a sphere:

The radius is half of the diameter, so the radius here is 40/2 = 20. Plug it in the formula, use 3.14 to approximate for Pi:

Simplify the exponent:

Multiply:
One pound is 16 oz. just multiply 22 by 16 and boom, there's your answer

Then

which is a disk of radius 1, hence with area
