If two cylinders have the same radius, but one has a height two times larger

small one?

The volume of the large cylinder will be twice the volume of the small cylinder.

Explanation:

Let the radius of the cylinder be 'r'

Let the height of the cylinder be'h'

Volume of the small cylinder=π r² h

Volume of the large cylinder= π r² (2h)

Volume of large cylinder/volume of small cylinder= 2/1

The large cylinder volume is twice the volume of the small cylinder.
