The relationship for density is the ratio between mass and volume. The formula for density is:


d=(m)/(v)

Therefore, we first need to find the volume of the cone. The formula to find the volume of a cone is:


v=\pi r^2(h)/(3)

The h stands for the height of the cone and the r stands for the radius of the cone. We can input the values we have already to find the measurement of volume for the cone.


v=\pi(25)^2(100)/(3)
v=(62500\pi)/(3)\approx65450\operatorname{cm}^3

The volume of the cone is 65450 cubic centimeters.

Now, we use the formula for density and create the ratio.
