Where Shall I Cut First?

Geometry Level 1

I have a cylinder and a cone. They both share the same height and the same diameter.

What is the ratio of volume between the cylinder and the cone?

6 : 1 6 : 1 6 : 2 6 : 2 6 : 3 6 : 3 6 : 4 6 : 4

Volume of Cylinder = π r 2 h . Volume of Cone = 1 3 π r 2 h . Ratio of Volume = V. of Cylinder V. of cone = π r 2 h 1 3 π r 2 h [ Both the shapes have same radius and height ] Volume of Cylinder Volume of Cone = 3 1 = 3 : 1 6 : 2 . \large \displaystyle \text{Volume of Cylinder } = \pi r^2 h.\\ \large \displaystyle \text{Volume of Cone } = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h.\\ \large \displaystyle \therefore \text{Ratio of Volume } = \frac{\text{V. of Cylinder}}{\text{V. of cone}}\\ \large \displaystyle = \frac{ \pi r^2 h}{ \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h}\\ [\because \text{Both the shapes have same radius and height}]\\ \large \displaystyle \implies \frac{\text{Volume of Cylinder}}{\text{Volume of Cone}} = \frac{3}{1} = 3 : 1\\ \large \displaystyle \implies \color{#D61F06}{\boxed{6 : 2}}.
