The ratio of the length of two similar rectangular blocks is 2 : 3. If the volume of the larger block is 351cm\(^3\), then the volume of the other block is?
-
234.00 cm3
- 526.50 cm3
- 166.00 cm3
- 687cm3
The correct answer is: A
Explanation
Let x represent total vol. 2 : 3 = 2 + 3 = 5
\(\frac{3}{5}\)x = 351
x = \(\frac{351 \times 5}{3}\)
= 585
Volume of smaller block = \(\frac{2}{5}\) x 585
= 234.00cm\(^3\)
