Volume of any prism is always base × height, where base is the area of the shape in the bases.
Your shape in the bases is a square. Area of a square is a×a or a^2 in cm^2
The height of a cube is always the same as the side
Put it all together and you get V = base × height = a^2 (cm^2) × a (cm) = a^3 in cm^3

Well, if 25% is varnish, then the remaining 75% are spirits.
So, the ratio is 75%/25% = 3.
For the second one, mutliply the volume of varnish by 3, which we got above.
And for the third one, calculate the ratio by dividing one number by the other and expressing it as an ordinary fraction.

You're actually right on 60 ml.

#

I misread the question.
We must have the ratio of spirits to varnish of 0.25/1 = 1/4. So, the first answer would be 1/4, and the second would be 60 ml.

#

Those terms (spirits and varnish) just confused me a bit, sorry.

#

so it's 1:4

Spirits is 0.25 or 1/4
Varnish is the rest 0.75 or 3/4
The ratio of spirits to varnish is 1/4 : 3/4 which you can simplify further

#

And what do you get?

#

Or is it, it says 25% of the varnish not in total

#

If we're looking at 25% of the varnish is spirit, then 1/4 of the varnish is spirit. So spirit to varnish ratio is 1/4 as lord said

#

Which means if you have 240ml varnish, a quarter of it or 25% of it will be spirit
