Solution:

Let volume of cylinder be K times more than volume of Cone.

⇒K × Volume of Cone = Volume of Cylinder


K * (\pi* r^2 * h )/(3)=\pi * R^2 * H\\\\K * 5^2 * 10= 3 * 10^2 * 20\\\\250 K=3 * 100 * 20\\\\K=(6000)/(250)\\\\K=24

⇒Number of times one needs to use the completely fill cone to completely fill the cylinder with water is=24
