Let the ratio between 2 of them be a/b. The volume of the larger one is x (ft^3)
<span>(a/b)^2 = 20/45 = 4/9 ---> a/b = 2/3 </span>
<span>(a/b)^3 = 8/x </span>
<span>8/x = (2/3)^3 = 8/27 ---> x = 27 (ft^3) </span>
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You have the following ratio given in the problem above:
11:1
2. You can rewrite that ratio as below:
11/1=11
3. Then, to find three equivalent ratios, you only need to multiply the numerator (11) and the denominator (11) by the sam number. Therefore, you have:
11x2/1x2=22/2=11
11x3/1x3=33/3=11
11x4/1x4=44/4=11
Therefore, as you can see, the answer is:
22:2
33:3
44:4
