Yeah I answered everything. I literally can remember hardly anything it all seemed a bit of a blur haha. I wasn't sure which way to interpret but I know the actually size was more than 50% more so.

really I write that it was only 30% bigger in volume as it cubed the length of the bigger one and divided it by the cubed length of the smaller giving 1.30.... Meaning it was only 30% bigger .... I don't know and I'm probably wrong!!!

Me and my teacher stayed after school and we worked out that the scale factor (0.15...something) cubed [remember VOLUME! = ^3) and then I did something else like my teacher did ... I would know if I had the paper in front of me ... and then the answer came out to be 1.539something. Subtract the original representative of 1 = 0.539something .... making it enlarged by 54%.

50%<54% ... the answer was 'Yes'

There's a similar question on cup shapes and they did what I did can you please see it as its the last question in the November 2013 paper it's 18b and the larger length is 42 and the smaller is 28 so 42 cubed / 28 cubed giving 3.375 so no it's more than 3 times bigger and I think the same thing applies here ... Please tell me if I'm making any sense???
