    The diameter of the moon is approximately one-fourth of the diameter of the earth. What is the ratio (approximate) of their volumes?

    A)  \[1:16\]                       

    B)  \[1:64\]

    C)  \[1:4\]                        

    D)  \[1:128\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Given that, the diameter of Moon is approximately one-fourth of the diameter of Earth. If radius of the Moon = r, then radius of the Earth = 4r, Now \[\frac{Volume\text{ }of\text{ }Moon}{Volume\text{ }of\text{ }Earth}\] \[=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi {{(4r)}^{3}}}=\frac{{{r}^{3}}}{64{{r}^{3}}}=\frac{1}{64}=\]
