= cone's radius, in inches
= cone's height, in inches
The volume of a cone is
, so in this case, the volume (in cubic inches) is
.
All you have to do is solve for ,
and then calculate .
Solving for r:

So, the radius, founded to the nearest hundredth is .
You can calculate the height,
but do not forget to write inches as the unit.

A cone's height is six times greater ...
==============
1 time greater is a 100% increase = 2x as great.
2 times greater = 3x as great.
3 times greater = 4x as great.
4 times greater = 5x as great.
5 times greater = 6x as great.
6 times greater = 7x as great.
