Question:

The ratio of radii of two cones is 3 : 5 and the ratio of their height is 5 : 4, then the ratio of their volumes is:

Options:

25 : 12

9 : 20

16 : 9

4 : 3

Correct Answer:

9 : 20

Explanation:

Ratio of radii = R1  :  R2 = 3   :   5

Ratio of height = H:   H2  = 5  :   4

Ratio of volumes = \(\frac{1}{3}\) \(\pi \) R12H1   :   \(\frac{1}{3}\) \(\pi \) R22H2

                           =  R12H1   :   R22H2

                           =  (3)2 . 5   :   (5)2 . 4 

                           = 9 : 20
