    Question

    The ratio of the heights of a right circular cone and a right circular cylinder is 4 : 3 and the ratio of the radii of their bases is 7 : 3. If the volume of the cylinder is 810 cm3\text{cm}^3​, then the volume (in cm3\text{cm}^3) of the cone is:

    A.

    1961

    B.

    1955

    C.

    1966

    D.

    1960

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    Ratio of height of cone and cylinder = 4 : 3

    Ratio of their radii of their bases = 7 : 3

    Volume of cylinder = 810cm3cm^3​​

    Formula Used:

    Volume of cone = 13πr2h\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h​​

    Volume of cylinder =πr2h \pi r^2h​​

    Solution:

    Let the ratio of height of cone and cylinder be 4x and 3x respectively

    And the ratio of radii of their bases be 7y and 3y

    Then volume of cylinder = π(3y)23x=π(27xy2)=810 \pi (3y)^2 3x = \pi (27xy^2) = 810​​

    xy2=81027×π=30πxy^2 = \frac{810}{27 \times \pi} = \frac{30}{\pi}​​

    Volume of cone =13π(7y)2(4x)=13π(196xy2) \frac{1}{3}\pi (7y)^2 (4x) = \frac{1}{3}\pi (196xy^2)​​

    =13×π×196×30π= \frac{1}{3}\times \pi \times 196 \times \frac{30}{\pi}​​

    =1960cm3= 1960cm^3​​
