HELLO MATE

THIS IS NEHA TO HELP YOU WITH

HEIGHT = 5CM

BASE(RADIUS)=2CM

VOLUME OF CYLINDER=
\pi r^(2)h

VOLUME OF CONE=
(1)/(3) \pi r^(2)h

volume of cone= volume of cylinder


(1)/(3)\pi r^(2)h= \pi r^(2)h\\ \\\pi \(get cancelled)

equation becomes↓


(1)/(3)r^(2)h=r^(2)h\\ \\(1)/(3)*2^(2)*5 = 2^(2)*5\\\\\\frac{1}{3}*4*5=4*5\\ \\
(1)/(3)*20=20\\\\(1)/(3)=(20)/(20)\\

answer= 1/3

option(a)

hope this helps

:)
