Question 1181345: The prince of a far off land was passing through and noticed your fort. He was so impressed by its design that he wanted to build larger scale version of it to be his new castle back home. If the simplified ratio of the volume of your fort to the volume of his castle is 1:27, what will be the surface area of the prince’s castle?
My fort's S.A=5680ft^2
My fort's Volume=18,728.94ft^3
I tried sending this in last time but one of the tutors called it gibberish. If this question does not make sense I apologize in advance.

a. What would you tell your Northeast coast audience? Which type of reasoning—inductive or deductive—did you use? Explain.
b. Write an if-then statement to describe your conjecture.
c. Write the inverse of the statement.
d. Write the converse and contrapositive of the statement.
