The ratio of the length of two similar rectangular blocks is 2 : 3. If the volume of the larger block is 351cm3, then the volume of the other block is
-
A.
234.00 cm3 -
B.
526.50 cm3 -
C.
166.00 cm3 -
D.
687cm3
Correct Answer: Option 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
= 234.00
