You have to cut 15 pounds into 3.75 four times
        
             
        
        
        
The ratio of surface area is equal to the ratio of the square of the corresponding dimensions. And ratio of volumes of two solids is equal to the cube of the ratio of the corresponding dimensions .
We start with the relation between ratio of surface area and ratio of corresponding sides. That is
 
Here x and y are the corresponding sides .

Let the volume of the smaller one be v


So for the smaller solid, volume is 272 . And the correct option is the first option .
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
length is 28.86ft
 width= 4.12ft
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>
This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a rectangular prism.</h2>
The storage space takes the shape of a rectangular prism, and we are required to find the width and length  of the storage space.
let the width of the basement be "w"
Given data
volume v=
length l = 
width w= 
height h= 
We know that the expression for the volume of a rectangular prism is

substituting our data we have to find "w"

dividing both sides by 35 we have

find the square root of both sides we have

since we know that length= 7w and width = w , we can substitute our value for w and find the length and width

 
        
             
        
        
        
A= 192 cm squared
Why?
17 x 10= 170
4 x 11= 44 
44 divided by 2 =22
170+ 22= 192 cm squared
        
                    
             
        
        
        
The square root of 25 is 5, so each side is 5metres x
