Question

Two similar cylinders have heights of 3 cm and 6 cm respectively. If the volume of the smaller cylinder is 30 cm3, find the volume of the larger cylinder.Required to answer. Single line text.​

Answer 1

Volume of big cylinder = 1,438.76 cm (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Height of smaller cylinder = 3 cm

Height of big cylinder = 6 cm

Volume of smaller cylinder = 30 cm³

Find:

Volume of big cylinder

Computation:

Volume of smaller cylinder = πr²h

(22/7)(r²)(3) = 30

Radius of small cylinder = 1.783 cm (Approx.)

So,

Radius of big cylinder = 1.783 x 2 = 3.566 cm (Approx.)

Volume of big cylinder = πr²h

Volume of big cylinder = (22/7)(3.566)²(6)

Volume of big cylinder = 1,438.76 cm (Approx.)
