Question

What is the volume of the box if is scaled down by a factor of 1/10

dimensions-
V= L x W x H
V= 13 x 10 x 3= 390
V= 390in

Answer 1

The new volume is
`0.39`
`units^(3)`

Explanation:

I'm not SUPER experienced with these types of problems, but I'll try my best.

V=L·W·H

V=13·10·3

`V_(1)`=390

We are trying to find the measures scaled down by a factor of 1/10.

1. Take all the measurements (L, W, H) and divide them by 10
2. *Scaling down by 1/10 is the same as dividing by 10*
3. 13=1.3, 10=1, 3=0.3
4. 
   `V_(2)` =1.3·1·0.3 (AKA the volume of the scaled down box)
5. 0.39
