Vocabulary capacity
Capacity Corresponding edge lengths of any two cubes are in proportion to each other because the cubes are similar. However, volumes and surface areas do not have the same scale factor as edge lengths. Each edge of the 2 ft cube is 2 times as long as each edge of the 1 ft cube. However, the cube’s volume, or capacity, is 8 times as large, and its surface area is 4 times as large as the 1 ft cube’s.
Helpful Hint Multiplying the linear dimensions of a solid by n creates n2 as much surface area and n3 as much volume.
3 cm cube 3 cm 1 cm cube 1 cm Example: Scaling Models That Are Cubes A 3 cm cube is built from small cubes, each 1 cm on an edge. Compare the following values. A. the edge lengths of the large and small cubes Ratio of corresponding edges = 3 The edges of the large cube are 3 times as long as the edges of the small cube.
3 cm cube 54 cm2 1 cm cube 6 cm2 Example: Scaling Models That Are Cubes B. the surface areas of the two cubes Ratio of corresponding areas = 9 The surface area of the large cube is 9 times that of the small cube.
3 cm cube 27 cm3 1 cm cube 1 cm3 Example: Scaling Models That Are Cubes C. the volumes of the two cubes Ratio of corresponding volumes = 27 The volume of the large cube is 27 times that of the small cube.
2 cm cube 2 cm 1 cm cube 1 cm Try This A 2 cm cube is built from small cubes, each 1 cm on an edge. Compare the following values. A. the edge lengths of the large and small cubes Ratio of corresponding edges = 2 The edges of the large cube are 2 times as long as the edges of the small cube.
2 cm cube 24 cm2 1 cm cube 6 cm2 Try This B. the surface areas of the two cubes Ratio of corresponding areas = 4 The surface area of the large cube is 4 times that of the small cube.

6 in. 6 in. 4 ft 48 in. = = 1 8 Example: Scaling Models That Are Other Solid Figures A box is in the shape of a rectangular prism. The box is 4 ft tall, and its base has a length of 3 ft and a width of 2 ft. For a 6 in. tall model of the box, find the following. A. What is the scale factor of the model? Convert and simplify. The scale factor of the model is 1:8.

30 s x 1 ft3 8 ft3 = Example: Business Application It takes 30 seconds for a pump to fill a cubic container whose edge measures 1 ft. How long does it take for the pump to fill a cubic container whose edge measures 2 ft? Find the volume of the 2 ft cubic container. V = 2 ft 2 ft 2 ft = 8 ft3 Set up a proportion and solve. Cancel units. 30 8 = x Multiply. 240 = x Calculate the fill time. It takes 240 seconds, or 4 minutes, to fill the larger container.
30 s x 1 ft3 27 ft3 = Try This It takes 30 seconds for a pump to fill a cubic container whose edge measures 1 ft. How long does it take for the pump to fill a cubic container whose edge measures 3 ft? Find the volume of the 2 ft cubic container. V = 3 ft 3 ft 3 ft = 27 ft3 Set up a proportion and solve. 30 27 = x Multiply. 810 = x Calculate the fill time. It takes 810 seconds, or 13.5 minutes, to fill the larger container.
