Question

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

Answer 1

that is wrong

Answer 2

Volume ratio = 64π / 512π = 1/8. Linear scale factor = (1/8)^(1/3) = 1/2.

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