A cube has side length
a. The side lengths are decreased to 30% of their original size. Write an expression in simplest form for the volume of the new cube in terms of
a.

.027(a^3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is s^3, where s is the sidelength

We plug in .3a for s, because the sidelength has been reduced to 30% of a.

We get (.3a)^3 = .027(a^3)

a) 0.25x times 3. (could be wrong on equation.)

b) 2.25 pound of dark chocolate. (can i eat all the chocolate? plz? anyway, again, could be wrong, but i hope im right. all the chocolate together should be 5.25 pounds)

have a good day!
