If the volume of two cubes are in the ratio of 27 : 64, then the ratio of their total surface area is
A27 : 64
B3 : 4
C9 : 16
D3 : 8

Correct answer is:  9 : 16

Explanation:

\(\Large \frac{(a_{1})^{3}}{(a_{2})^{3}}=\frac{27}{64}\)

\(\Large \frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{3}{4}\)

Ratio of their total surface area

\(\Large =\frac{6a_{1}^{2}}{6a_{2}^{2}}= \left(\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}\right)^{2}\)

\(\Large = \left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{2}=\frac{9}{16}=9:16\)
