If the volume for 3-D polyhedra A is 400 cm3 and the volume for 3-D polyhedral B is 800 cm3. How many times bigger is the volume of pyramid B than pyramid A? 200% 20% 2% 0.2%

Respuesta :

We're literally just comparing 400 to 800 here.
800 is 2× bigger than 400, of course.
To put that in a percent...
Well, 1 = 100%. (it's a whole)
So 2 = 200%
For this case we can make the following rule of three:
 400 cm ^ 3 ---------------> 100%
 800 cm ^ 3 --------------> x
 From here, we clear the value of x.
 We have then:
 [tex]x = (800/400) * (100) x = 200[/tex] Answer:
 the volume of pyramid B is 200% bigger than pyramid A
