Katie is buying a refrigerator for her apartment. She's choosing between a regular fridge and a gigantic fridge (details are shown in the table below). She notices that the gigantic fridge costs 333 times as much as the regular fridge.
How many times as great is the volume of the gigantic fridge as the volume of the regular fridge?


Area of the base, Height, Price
Regular Fridge: 1m² / 2m / $200
Large Fridge: 2m² / 5/2 m / $600

Respuesta :

The volume of the gigantic fridge is 2.5 times grater than the volume of the regular fridge.

What is volume?

The term “volume” refers to the amount of three-dimensional space taken up by an item or a closed surface. It is denoted by V and its SI unit is in cubic m.

The volume is found as the product of the area and the length;

Volume  = Area ×length

V=A×L

Volume of the regular fridge;

V=  1 m²× 2 m

V=2 m³

Volume of the large fridge;

V=  2 m²× 5/2 m

V=5 m³

The ratio of the volume of the gigantic fridge as the volume of the regular fridge is;

[tex]\rm n = \frac{5}{2} \\\\ n= 2.5[/tex]

Hence, volume of the gigantic fridge is 2.5 times grater than the volume of the regular fridge
