The radii of two right circular cylinders are in the ratio 3 : 2 and the of their volumes is 27 : 16. What is the ratio of their heights?1. 4 : 32. 9 : 83. 3 : 44. 8 : 9

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 3 : 4

Given:

Ratio of radius of two right circular cylinders = 3 : 2

Ratio of their volumes = 27 : 16

Formula used:

Volume of right circular cylinder = πr2h

Calculation:

let the height of both cylinder be h1 and h2

⇒ π32h1/π22h2 = 27 : 16

⇒ 9h1/4h2 = 27 : 16

⇒ 4h1 = 3h2

⇒ h: h2 = 3 : 4

∴ The ratio of their heights is 3 : 4
