stich3 [128]

The statement that describes the volumes of the two figures relate is: <em>The </em><em>volume of the cone</em><em> is 1/3 of the </em><em>volume of the cylinder</em>

Given the following:

Volume of cylindrical-shaped container = 12 cubic feet

Volume of cone-shaped container = 4 cubic feet

Ratio of the volume of the cone to the volume of the cylinder = 4 : 12 = 1 : 3

Therefore the statement that describes the volumes of the two figures relate is: <em>The </em><em>volume of the cone</em><em> is 1/3 of the </em><em>volume of the cylinder</em>
