Algebra.Com's Answer #595825 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! \n" ); document.write( "The cube has volume 20*20*20=8000 micrometers^3 \n" ); document.write( "If I understand the problem, there is fluid put in with the equivalent of a cubic solid of 2*2*2, or 8 micrometer^3. That would be 8/8000, 1/1000th the volume or 0.1%.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "One may also do it with ratios. \n" ); document.write( "it is 1 cube /another cube. \n" ); document.write( "The ratio of each side is 1 to 10 or 10% \n" ); document.write( "Cubing that ratio makes the total volume ratio 1 to 1000, or 0.1%\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
