    If the volume of two cubes are in ratio 27: 64, then the ratio of their total surface areas is

    A) 27 : 64             

    B) 3 : 4

    C) 9 : 16   

    D) 3 : 8

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Let \[{{a}_{1}}\] and \[{{a}_{2}}\] be the sides of the cube, then \[{{\left( \frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}} \right)}^{3}}=\frac{27}{64}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{3}{4}\] \[\therefore \] Ratio of their surface area \[={{\left( \frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}} \right)}^{2}}={{\left( \frac{3}{4} \right)}^{2}}\]             \[=\frac{9}{16}=9:16\]
