Question

If `bb(a/b = 7/3)` then find the value of the following ratio.

`(a^3 - b^3)/b^3`

Sum

Solution

`a/b = 7/3`

Let the common multiple be k.

`a = 7k , b = 3k`

`therefore (a^3 - b^3)/b^3`

= `{(7k)^3 - (3k)^3}/(3k)^3`

= `{343k^3 - 27k^3}/{27k^3}`

= `(316  k^3)/(27  k^3)`

= `(316)/(27)`
