Answer:
4:9
Step-by-step explanation:
area is directly proportional to side²
S1:S2 = 2:3
then A1: A2 = (S1:S2)²
= (2:3)²
= 4:9

the ratio of surface area will be 4 : 9 if ratio of the sides of two cubes are 2 : 3
Given:
- The ratio of the sides of two cubes are 2 : 3
To Find:
- Ratio of their surface area
Solution:
- Surface area of cube = 6a²
- Volume of cube = a³
- a = Side length of cube
Step 1:
Assume that side lengths of cubes are 2x and 3x
Step 2:
Calculate Surface area of both cube
S₁ = 6(2x)² = 6x² (4)
S₂ = 6(3x)² = 6x² (9)
Step 3:
Find Ratio of surface Areas
S₁ / S₂ = 6x² (4) / 6x² (9)
S₁ / S₂ = 4 / 9 ( cancel 6x² )
4 : 9 is the ratio
Hence the ratio of their surface area will be 4 : 9
