Question

A cone has a volume of 12 in.³ what is the volume of a cylinder that the cone fits exactly inside of

Answer 1

36 in³

Explanation:

A cylinder with the same radius and height has 3 times the volume of a cone. You may recall that the formulas for volume are ...

cone volume = (1/3)πr²·h

cylinder volume = πr²·h . . . . . . 3 times the volume of the cone

The cylinder volume is ...

3×(12 in³) = 36 in³
