Are there any parenthesis? I think you might have skipped out on them.
D = sqrt(3s^2) where s is the length of the side. Solving for s,
<span>3s^2 = d^2 iff </span>
<span>s^2 = d^2 / 3 iff </span>
<span>s = sqrt(d^2 / 3) </span>
<span>= d / sqrt(3) or d sqrt(3) / 3 </span>
<span>Surface area of the cube = 6 s^2. Thus, </span>
<span>A = 6 (d / sqrt(3))^2 </span>
<span>= 6d^2 / 3 </span>
<span>= 2d^2 </span>
<span>Volume = s^3. Thus, </span>
<span>V = (d / sqrt(3))^3 </span>
<span>= d^3 / 3sqrt(3) </span>
<span>= d^3 sqrt(3) / 9</span>
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio is simply 2:5
You are comparing the two times
