A cube has each of its edges doubled. Find the ratio of the volume of the first cube to that of the second cube. Find also the ratio of the area of a face of the first cube to that of the second cube
------------
Vol = s^3 --> 2x of the sides --> 8x of the volume.
-----
Area = s^2 --> 2x of the sides --> 4x of the area
