Question

Help !!!! Thank you!!!!

Answer 1

Option (G)

Explanation:

Volume of the real cane = 96 in³

Volume of the model of a can = 12 in³

Volume scale factor =
`\frac{\text{Volume of the model}}{\text{Volume of the real can}}`

=
`(12)/(96)`

`=(1)/(8)`

Scale factor of the model =
`\sqrt[3]{\text{Volume scale factor}}`

`=\sqrt[3]{(1)/(8)}`

`=(1)/(2)`

Therefore, scale factor of the model of a can =
`(1)/(2)` ≈ 1 : 2

Option (G) will be the correct option.
