Acone has a volume of 6 cubic inches. what is the volume of a cylinder that the cone fits exactly inside of

= 18 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is given by the formula;

V = 1/3 × base area × height

While that of cylinder is given by the formula;

Volume = Base area × height

Since we need the cylinder to fit exactly inside the cone, then it  means that their bases are the same and heights are the same.

Therefore;

The cone has three times less volume compared to the cylinder.

Thus;

Volume of the cylinder = Volume of cone × 3

                                       = 6 In³ × 3

                                       = 18 cubic inches

2.   2 3/5.

3.   2 1/2.

step-by-step explanation:

6 - 3 2/5

= 6 -   17/5

= 30/5 - 17/5

= 13/5

= 2 3/5 (answer).

5 1/4 - 2 3/4

= 21/4 - 11/4

= 10/4

= 2 1/2 (answer).
