Question 2

Only one of the four options is correct. Write the correct one.

The ratio of the number of sides of a square to the number of edges of a cube is

a) 1 : 2

b) 3 : 2

c) 4 : 1

d) 1 : 3

Answer 1

We know that, number of sides in a square = 4
And the number of edges in a cube = 12
$\therefore$ Ratio of the number of sides of a square to the number of edges = $\frac{4}{12}$
= $\frac{1}{3}$ =$1:3$ [on dividing numerator and denominator by 4]
Hence, (d) is the correct option.
