Question

Create a cylinder with a height of 16 cm and a radius of 5 cm. What can be concluded about the cylinder’s volume when the height is halved? The volume is One-fourthof the original. The volume is One-thirdof the original. The volume is One-halfof the original. The volume is twice the original.

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

Answer 2

New volume is one-half of the original

Explanation:

Step 1:

Find the original volume of the cylinder. Radius = 5 cm and height = 16 cm

Volume = πr²h = π × 5² × 16 = 400π

Step 2:

Find the volume when height is halved.

New volume = π × 5² × 8 = 200π

∴ New volume is one-half of the original.
