The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr2h. The volume of a cylinder is three times the volume of a cone with the same radius and height. If the volume of a cone with the same height as a cylinder equals the volume of the cylinder, the equation for the radius of cone R in terms of the radius of cylinder r is

Since the cone volume formula is V=1/3πr2h , and the volume of a cylinder is V=πr2h , the ratio of cone to cylinder 3/1 or 3 : 1
