Proposition: Prop. 12.18: Volumes of Spheres are in Triplicate Ratio of Diameters

Euclid's Formulation

Spheres are to one another in the cubed ratio of their respective diameters.

• Let the spheres $ABC$ and $DEF$ have been conceived, and (let) their diameters (be) $BC$ and $EF$ (respectively).
• I say that sphere $ABC$ has to sphere $DEF$ the cubed ratio that $BC$ (has) to $EF$.
