Can someone please help explain? TIA...
Between 1975 to 2000, the volume of all iron and steel in an automobile model decreased from 9885 cubic-inches to 5000 cubic-inches. Over the same period, the volume of aluminum alloys increased from 730 cubic-inches to 2075 cubic-inches. Esitmate the total mass reduction resulting from this trend in materials substitution.
