Find the similarity ratio of a cube with a surface area of 36 m2 to a cube with a surface area of 81 m2.

Find the similarity ratio of a cube with a surface area of 36 m2 to a cube with a surface area of 81 m2.

2 : 3

216 : 729

36: 81

4: 9

1 answer

The similarity ratio of the two cubes would be 4:9.

This can be calculated by taking the square root of the ratio of the surface areas: √36/√81 = 6/9 = 2/3.

Multiplying this by 2 gives us 4, and multiplying by 3 gives us 9, resulting in a ratio of 4:9.
