Question

If the side of a cube is increased by 12% how much does it volume increase

Answer 1

let the side of cube be 100
now it's volume = 100×100×100=1000000
new side =112
so volume =112×112×112=1,404,928
volume increased = increased volume / previous volume *100
=404,928/1000000×100
=40492800/1000000
=40.4928%
