Answer:
7 : 17.29
Step-by-step explanation:
==>Given:
Two similar cylinders:
Surface area of Cylinder A = 49cm²
Surface area of Cylinder B = 121cm²
==>Required:
Scale factor between both cylinders
==>Solution:
We can easily get the scale factor between both by taking the following steps:
=>Set up a ratio of their surface area:
Smaller cone surface area : larger cone surface area
49:121
= 49/121
=>Simplify the ratio gotten:
Dividing the denominator and the numerator by 7, would give us,
7/17.29
= 7:17.29
First term, a

=4
Second term, a

=8
Common difference, d=a

d=8−4=4
∴ The common difference is 4
