No. It wouldn't be that.
volumes of cubes is V=s^3 where s is side length.
72= s^3+ (2s)^3= s^3+8s^3
72=9s^3
and you find s, the side length of the smaller cube, and 2s is the side length of the larger cube.
I came up with 8=s^3, how would I solve this? Thanks
Take the cube root of each side.
Thanks for your help!
