Problema Solution

A cylinder has a volume of 250cm3. The radius will be tripled. What will the volume be of the new cylinder?

Answer provided by our tutors

The volume of the cylinder = S(base)*Height = pi*R^2 * Height

When R is tripled, the volume will be 3^2 = 9 times

So the volume be of the new cylinder = 9*250 cm3 = 2250 cm3
