Question

The ratio of the heights of two similar cylinders is 1:3. If the volume of the smaller cylinder is 67cm3, find the volume of the larger cylinder. (Create two proportions, set them equal to each other and solve for x)

Answer 1

Answer:

solution given:

similar cylinders ratio 1:3

let the ratio be 1x and 3x respectively:

according to the question:

x/3x=volume of (smaller cylinder/big cylinder)

Volume of big Cylinder=67cm³×3=201cm3

201cm³ is your answer
