The diagram shows two geometrically similar jars. The heights of the smaller jar and bigger jar are 12 cm and 18 cm respectively. Given that the capacity of the bigger jar is 2025 cm3, calculate the capacity, in cm3, of the smaller jar.

smaller capasity's

= (12/18)³ × 2025cm³

= (2/3)³ × 2025cm³

= (8/27) × 2025 cm³

= 8 × 75cm³

= 600 cm³
