Volume of first cube:

Volume of second cube:

So the relation of the first volume to the second is that the second is 125 times greater.

So the relation of the first volume to the second is that the second is 125 times greater.
-----------------
The other tutor worked it correctly. The ratio is 125.
But, it's 125 times AS great, not 125 times greater.
125 times greater is 126 times as great.
-------------
If you disagree:
How much is 1 times greater?
How much is 100% greater?
