Question 613859: The volume of a cone varies jointly as the height of the cone and the square of the radius. If the radius is 8 centimeters and the height is 15 centimeters, the volume is 1005.3 cubic centimeters. Find the volume if the height is 21 centimeters and the radius is 6 centimeters.
I thought the answer was 1005.8 but I think I have done something wrong.
