Question

A pyramid has a surface area of 24 m^2.

An artist creates replicas with scale factors of 1:12, 1:10, and 1:8


What is the surface area of each replica?

Answer 1

The replicas will have a surface area of 3 m2, 2.4 m2 and 2 m2.

Explanation:

You would have to multiply:

24 x 1/8 = 3

24 x 1/10 = 2.4

24 x 1/12 = 2
