3 times 5 times 2.5 = $37.5
3 x 5 =15
15 x 2.5 =37.5
37.5 x 2 = 75 for both of them
I don't know if this is right or not, but that's how I would solve it!
Answer:
the question is incorrect.
This is the concept of scale factors, we are required to calculate for the volume of the smaller solid if the larger solid has a volume of 1975.
Area scale factor=(linear scale factor)^2
thus;
Area scale factor=(area of larger solid)/(area of smaller solid)=1057/384
linear scale factor=√(1057/384)=5.7019
the volume scale factor=(linear scale factor)^3=[volume of larger solid]/[volume of smaller solid]
The volume scale factor=(5.7019)^3=185.3772
therefore;
volume of smaller solid=[volume of larger solid]/[volume scale factor]
=1795/185.3772
=9.683
The answer is 9.683 yd^3
10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100….etc
