Question

Help please? Simple geometry :>

A cone has a volume of 5 cubic inches. What is the volume of a cylinder that the cone fits exactly inside of?

Answer 1

15 in3
20 in3
25 in3
30 in3

Answer 2

I'm only confused about the formulas. I've researched this question and have the answer, but the formulas for a cone are different.

The one I've been given on my homework is V=1/3(pi r^2)(h), but the only way to solve it is by using V=1/3bh. Can someone explain?

So the cone is one third the size of the cylinder so multiply the 5 times 3 and you get your answer.

Yes, but as I said before: I'm only confused about the formulas. I've researched this question and have the answer, but the formulas for a cone are different.
