Question

A cylinder has a volume of 390 cm³. If a cone has the same dimensions as the cylinder then what is the volume of the cone.

Answer 1

Answer: The volume of the cone is 130 cubic centimeters.

Explanation:

We know that to find the volume of a cylinder you will use the formula

V=
`\pi`
`r^(2) *h` Where r is the radius and h is the height.

And to find the volume of a cone you will use the formula

V=
`\pi`
`r^(2)`*h /3

So if they have the same dimensions which is the height and the radius then we will just divide the volume of the cylinder by 3 to find the volume of the cone.

V = 390/3

V = 130 cm^3
