Answer 1

Answer:

d. 72 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of  a cylinder that a cone of volume 24 cubic inches fits in exactly inside of, we will follow the steps below:

From the question volume of the cone = 24 cubic inches

volume of a cone = $\frac{1}{3}$ πr²h

and volume of a cylinder = πr²h

This implies

volume of a cone = $\frac{1}{3}$ πr²h

                            = $\frac{1}{3}$ (volume of a cylinder)

volume of a cone =  $\frac{1}{3}$ (volume of a cylinder)

24  =  $\frac{1}{3}$ (volume of a cylinder)

multiply both-side of the equation by 3

24×3 =   $\frac{1}{3}$ (volume of a cylinder)

72  =volume of a cylinder

Therefore volume of the cylinder that the cone fits exactly inside of is  72 cubic inches
