Volume of a cone=(1/3)πr²h
Volume of a cylinder=πr²h
The cone has the same radius (r) and height than the cylinder that the cone fits exactly inside of.
Data:
Volume of a cone=5 in³
Then:
(1/3)πr²h=5 in³
πr²h=3(5 in³)
πr²h=15 in³ (remember: volume of a cylinder=πr²h)
Then the volume of a cylinder that the cone fits exactly inside of would be:
15 in³
