A cylinder and a cone have the same diameter: 8 inches. The height of the cylinder is 3 inches. The height of the cone is 18 inches.

Use π = 3.14.

The formula of a volume of a cone:

[tex]V_1=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2H[/tex]

We have 2r = 8 in → r = 4in and H = 18 in. Substitute:

[tex]V_1=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi(4^2)(18)=\pi(16)(6)=96\pi\ ni^3[/tex]

The fomula of a volume of a cylinder:

[tex]V_2=\pi r^2H[/tex]

We have 2r = 8 in → r = 4 in and H = 3 in. Substitute:

[tex]V_2=\pi(4^2)(3)=\pi(16)(3)=48\pi\ in^3[/tex]

[tex]V_2:V_1=48\pi:96\pi=1:2[/tex]

The volume of the cylinder is twice as large as the volume of the cone.

The cylinder's volume is = 150.72. The formula for a cylinder's volume is V=πr^2*h. So the filled out formula is V=3.14(4^2)*3. This equals 150.8.

The cone's volume is =133.97. The formula is f= πr^2*(h/3) Filled out this is f= 3.14(4^2)*(8/3).

So the volume of the cylinder is greater than that of the cone. 150.72>133.97.
