Respuesta :

Answer:

the ratio is 1:8 from the original prism to the new prism

Step-by-step explanation:

first, find the volume of the original prism. the formula for this is bxhxw (base x height x width). using this, we get an answer of 384. do the same for the second figure, and you should get 3072. then to find the ratio, simplify the fraction 384/3072. turn this fraction into ratio form, then you have your answer.
