Sergio has two similar cylindrical pots, Pot A and Pot B. The radius of Pot A is 15 inches, and the radius of Pot B is 3 inches. What is the ratio of the volume of Pot A to the volume of Pot B?

10:1

25:1

125:1

5:1

Respuesta :

Answer:

125:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of the volume of Pot A to the volume of Pot B is equals to [tex]25:1[/tex].

What is volume?

" Volume is defined as the total space occupied by three dimensional geometrical shape enclosed."

Formula used

Volume of cylinder [tex]= \pi r^{2} h[/tex]

According to the question,

Given,

Two similar cylindrical pots

Radius of Pot A [tex]= 15inches[/tex]

Radius of Pot B [tex]= 3inches[/tex]

Consider,

[tex]'h'[/tex] represents the height of the similar Pot A and Pot B.

[tex]V_{1}[/tex] represents the volume of Pot A

[tex]V_{2}[/tex] represents the volume of Pot A

Substitute the value in the formula to get the ratio of the volume of Pot A and Pot B,

[tex]\frac{V_{1} }{V_{2} } = \frac{\pi (!5)^{2} h}{\pi (3)^{2}h } \\\\\implies \frac{V_{1} }{V_{2} } = \frac{15\times 15}{3\times 3} \\\\\implies \frac{V_{1} }{V_{2} } =\frac{25}{1}[/tex]

Hence, Option(B) is the correct answer.
