Answer:

The volume of the medium box is 8 times the volume of the small box

The volume of the large box is 3.375 times the volume of the medium box

The volume of the large box is 27 times the volume of the small box

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

so

In this problem

1) The scale factor of the small box to the medium box  is equal to

\frac{10}{5} =2

The scale factor elevated to the cube is equal to

2^{3}=8

therefore

The volume of the medium box is 8 times the volume of the small box

2) The scale factor of the medium box to the large box  is equal to

\frac{15}{10} =1.5

The scale factor elevated to the cube is equal to

1.5^{3}=3.375

therefore

The volume of the large box is 3.375 times the volume of the medium box

3) The scale factor of the small box to the large box  is equal to

\frac{15}{5} =3

The scale factor elevated to the cube is equal to

3^{3}=27

therefore

The volume of the large box is 27 times the volume of the small box

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

D. 10*6^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This fits the problem as long as there were 10 rows. The 10 signifies the number of rows while the 6^2 is the number of bricks per row. This would be a total of 360 bricks.
