\n" ); document.write( "The ratio of heights (linear dimensions) is 12:18 = 2:3.

\n" ); document.write( "That means the ratio of volumes is (2^3):(3^3) = 8:27.

\n" ); document.write( "\"8%2F27+=+x%2F%28655%2F4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"27x=8%28655%2F4%29=1310\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=1310%2F27\"

\n" ); document.write( "That's not a whole number; convert to decimal or mixed number as needed....
