    You cube each of the numbers

    that is 6^3 : 7^3

    = 216:343

    For similar solids, the ratio of the volumes given the ratio of the corresponding sides (in this problem given as scale factor), can be solved by raising that ratio to exponent 3. That is,

    ratio of volumes = (6/7) ³

    which will give us an answer of

    ratio of volumes = 216/343
