This problem’s question: {\color{#D61F06}\text{This problem's question:}} What is the volume of ellipsoid volume of tetrahedron ? \frac{\text{volume of ellipsoid}}{\text{volume of tetrahedron}}?

Given four three-dimensional points, such that no three points are colinear and all four points are not coplanar on the surface of a minimal volume ellipsoid, what is the volume of ellipsoid volume of tetrahedron ? \frac{\text{volume of ellipsoid}}{\text{volume of tetrahedron}}?

The four three-dimensional points' coordinates are not supplied as they are not necessary to solve this problem. Bonus: why is this true?


The answer is 8.16209713905398.
