Question

Two similar cylinders have a scale factor of 1.6/3. Find the ratio of their volumes. Answer must be in fraction form.

Answer 1

Volume of cylinders = pi x r^2 x height  Simplifying the ratio: 1.6/3 = 16 / 30 (multiply and divide by 10 to remove the decimal)  Volume Ratio = 512:27

Answer 2

Volume of cylinders = pi x r^2 x height  Simplifying the ratio: 1.6/3 = 16 / 30 (multiply and divide by 10 to remove the decimal)  Volume Ratio = 512:27
