Question

    A cone and a cylinder have the same radius and height.

    If the volume of the cone is 100 cm³, what is the volume of the cylinder?
    A 200 cm³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 300 cm³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 400 cm³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 500 cm³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Volume of a cone = (1/3)πr²h, Volume of a cylinder = πr²h. Since the radius and height are the same for both, the volume of the cylinder is three times the volume of the cone. Volume of the cylinder = 3 × 100 = 300 cm³. Correct option: B) 300 cm³.
