A cube 2 $\mathrm{cm}$ on a side is cut into cubes 1 $\mathrm{cm}$ on a side. a. How many cubes result? b. What was the surface area of the original cube, and what is the total surface area of the eight smaller cubes? What is the ratio of the surface areas? c. Show that the surface-to-volume ratio of the smaller cube is twice as great as for the single larger cube.
The ratio of corresponding dimensions of two similar solids is 1/2. The surface area of the first solid is 330 m2. Its volume is 624 m3. Find the surface area and volume of the second solid. Round each answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary
