Question

The scale factor of a large oil container to a small oil container is 0.075. The large oil container can carry 144,000cm^3 of oil.
How much oil can the small container carry?

A.) 10,800cm3
B.) 810 cm3
C.) 60.75cm3
D.) 0.075 cm3

Answer 1

Answer:

10800 cm³ oil can the small container carry.

Option (A) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is defined by

$Scale\ factor = \frac{Small\ volume}{Large\ volume }$

As given

The scale factor of a large oil container to a small oil container is 0.075.

The large oil container can carry 144,000 cm³ of oil.

Scale factor = 0.075

Larger volume = 144000 cm³

Put in the above

$0.075 = \frac{Small\ volume}{144000}$

Small volume = 144000 × 0.075

Small volume = 10800 cm³

Therefore 10800 cm³ oil can the small container carry.

Option (A) is correct .
