Answer:
The ratio of planet B's volume to planet A's volume is 1:512 or 1/512
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of sphere = 4/3 π r^3
r = d/2
Radius of palnet A = 8/2 = 4
Radius of planet B = 1/2
Since 4/3 π is same in both volumes so, they cancel out when finding ratio.
Now ratio depends on radius cube of both planets
Volume of Planet B : Volume of Planet A
4/3 π(1/2)^3 : 4/3 π(4)^3
Cancelling 4/3 π on both sides
1/8 : 64
Multiply 8 on both sides
1 : 512
So, The ratio of planet B's volume to planet A's volume is 1:512 or 1/512
