6:1
|
|
3:1
|
|
2:1

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Volume of Cube Given the Edge-Length Example: If edge-length is 3 cm, the volume of the cube; Volume = 33 = 3 x 3 x 3 = 27 cu.cm.
Detailed explanation-2: -The surface to volume ratio, or S/V ratio, refers to the amount of surface a structure has relative to its size. To calculate the S/V ratio, simply divide the surface area by the volume.
