[volume of a <span>cylindrical paint can 1]=[area of the base]*h so </span>[area of the base]*h=1 gallon
if <span>the height is doubled </span>[volume of a cylindrical paint can 2]=[area of the base]*(2*h) [volume of a cylindrical paint can 2]=2*{[area of the base]*h)} [volume of a cylindrical paint can 2]=2*[volume of a cylindrical paint can 1] [volume of a cylindrical paint can 2]=2*[1 gallon]-----> 2 gallons
the answer is <span>the capacity of the lager one is 2 gallons</span>
