What is the ratio between the volume of the smaller cone and the volume of the larger cone, expressed as a decimal?
-------------

r is 2nd power, h is 1st
Volume is a function of r squared, and of h
===============
R = radius of larger cone, r is smaller
H = ... etc
------

=
=
= 125/27
Small to large = 27/125
= 0.216:1
