Question

Two soup cans p and q are right circular cylinders. each can has the same height, 5 inches, but the radius of can p is 2 inches, and the radius of can q is 4 inches. how many times larger is the volume of can q than the volume of can p?

Answer 1

Answer: B. 4

Sorry for the really late answer

Explanation:

If the radius of a right circular cylinder is multiplied by k, and its height does not change, then the volume of the cylinder is multiplied by k². The radius of can Q is twice as great as the radius of can p. Therefor, the volume of can Q is 2², or 4 times larger than the volume of can p.
