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
Answer:
3:2 , 3/2, 3 to 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The best one is 3:2 cause it is the most used way to write a ratio. 3:2 also means 3 divided by 2 or 3 out of 2 so that's why you would use the other 2.
To calculate the volume of a prism you multiply the area of it's cross section by the length
Therefore
5 x 3= 15
(Area of the rectangle)
15x8= 120
(Volume of prism)
