Question

Dennis has three identical cylinders filled with water. How many cones should he be able to fill with the water if the cones have the same radius and the same height as the cylinders?

Answer 1

9 cones

Explanation:

V(cylinder) = π·r²·h

V(cone) = π·r²·h/3

1 cylinder = 3 cones

3 cylinders = 3×3 cones = 9 cones
