Explanation:

We have,

Volume of cylinder is 20 ft,
V_1=20\ ft

It is required to find the expression that represents the volume of a cone with the same base and height as the cylinder.

Let
V_2 is volume of cone. The formula of the volume of cylinder and the cone is given by :


V_1=\pi r^2 h\\\\V_2=(1)/(3)\pi r^2h

Dividing the above formulas as :


(V_2)/(V_1)=((1)/(3)\pi r^2h)/(\pi r^2 h)\\\\(V_2)/(V_1)=(1)/(3)


V_2=(V_1)/(3)


V_2=(20)/(3)\ ft

So, the volume of a cone is
(20)/(3)\ ft.
