Question

Two similar cylinders have volumes of 512π in.3
, 64π in.3
, and 64π in.3
,.512π in.3
. By comparing volume, what is the scale factor of the small cylinder to the larger cylinder?(1 point)

Answer 1

Volume ratio = 64π / 512π = 1/8. Scale factor = cube root(1/8) = 1/2.

So the small-to-large scale factor is 1:2 (or 1/2).
