There are 7 similarly shaped figures in a set. The largest figure is 7 inches tall. Each of the other figures is 1 inch shorter than the next larger figure. The surface area of the largest figure is 588 in.22. What is the surface area of the smallest figure?

Respuesta :

From the statement given above, it can be deduced that the measure of the side of the figure is equal to 1 inch. Thus, the scale factor is 1:7. The ratio of their area should be 1:49. To get the area of the smallest figure, we simply divide the given area of the largest figure by 49, giving us the answer which is equal to 12 in². 

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

take the 7 and times it by 1.7
