Answer:

8.38 m^3

Explanation:

The volumes are in proportion to the cubes of their radii.

Compare volumes in the form big cone / small cone.


\frac{131}{V_\text{small}}=(5^3)/(2^3)\\\frac{131}{V_\text{small}}=(125)/(8)

"Cross multiply."


125V_\text{small}=8\cdot131\\125V_\text{small}=1048\\V_\text{small}=(1048)/(125)\approx 8.34\text{ cm}^3
