To find: the dimensions of the both cubes.
Answer to Problem 4GP
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The volume of the object is
Length of the smaller cube is one-third of the length of the larger cube.
Calculation:
According to the question, length of the smaller cube is one-third of the length of the larger cube.
Let x be length of the smaller cube,
Therefore, length of the larger cube is
As the volume of the object is the difference between the cubes, therefore,
Thus, the length of smaller cube is
And, the length of larger cube is
Hence, the dimensions of the both cubes are
