Answer:
8 times smaller
Step-by-step explanation:
The original volume is: V = x^3 , where x is the edge length. So: V = 4^3 = 64 inches cubed.
If we halve each side length, 4 becomes 2, so our new volume is: V = 2^3 = 8 inches cubed.
To find how many times smaller, we take the original volume and divide by the new volume: 64/8 = 8
Thus, the new cube is 8 times smaller.
Hope this helps!
