    D 14.2% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the edge of the cube be x unit
    Volume of cube = x┬│ cubic unit
    New edge = 1.05x unit
    New volume = (1.05x)┬│ = 1.157625x┬│ cubic unit
    Increase in volume = 1.157625x┬│ тАУ x┬│ = 0.157625x┬│ cubic unit
    Percentage increase = (0.157625x┬│ / x┬│) ├Ч 100 = 15.7625%
