Compression Ratio Question..Need help!
Doing ATPL's at the moment but cannot get this one right.

On a four cylinder engine with a total volume of 9600cc, bore area of 100sqcm and a crank throw of 10cm, what would the compression ratio be?

*Compression Ratio= Total Volume (Divided By) Clearance Volume
The book says the answer is 6:1,

Any Help?

Regards

Brian
