A container can fill 64 identical mugs with water. Each mug has a circular base area of 9π cm^2. How many similar mugs of circular base area of 16π cm^2 can be filled with water from the same container?

Hello,

I don' know the word mug but i suppose it is a cylinder.
V=64*9π*h=x*16π*h
==>x=64*9π*h/(16π*h)=36 (mugs of 16π)
Tell me what a mug is!
