Complete Question

Two geometrically similar jugs have volumes of 1000 cm³and 512 cm³.They have circular bases. The diameter of the base of the larger jug is 9 cm.

Calculate the diameter of the smaller jug.

7.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the above question,we have the proportion

Smaller volume/ Larger volume = (Smaller diameter/ Larger diameter)³

We are to find the smaller diameter

Hence our formula is give as

Cube root(Smaller volume/ Larger volume)= Smaller diameter/ Larger diameter

=cube root( 512/1000) = x/9

= 8/10 = x/9

Cross Multiply

10x = 8 × 9

10x = 72

x = 72/10

x = 7.2cm

Therefore, the diameter of the second jug is 7.2 cm
