Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Diameter = 8 inches

Radius = Diameter/2 = 8/2 = 4 inches

Height of the cylinder = 3 inches

Height of the cone = 18 inches

Volume of a cylinder = π r² h

= 3.14 × 4² × 3

= 3.14 × 16 × 3

= 150.72

Volume of a cone = 1/3 π r² h

= 1/3 × 3.14 × 4² × 18

= 1/3 × 3.14 × 16 × 18

= 301.44

From the answer gotten, we can deduce that the volume of the cone is twice the volume of the cylinder.
