\n" ); document.write( "In any similar figures, if the scale factor (ratio of linear measurements) is a:b, then the ratio of area measurements is a^2:b^2, and the ratio of volume measurements is a^3:b^3.

\n" ); document.write( "In your problem, you are given
\n" ); document.write( "\"a%5E3%3Ab%5E2+=+1331%3A343+=+11%5E3%3A7%5E3\"

\n" ); document.write( "So the ratio of area measurements is
\n" ); document.write( "\"11%5E2%3A7%5E2+=+121%3A49\"

\n" ); document.write( "Then
\n" ); document.write( "\"484%3A121+=+x%3A49\"
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "\"484%2F121+=+x%2F49\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4+=+x%2F49\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+196\"

\n" ); document.write( "Answer choice B.
