(((Two similar cones have heights 5 and 10. What is the ratio of their volumes?)))
---------------
Assuming by similar you mean as in the other question, that the ratio of heights and base dimensions are the same, then the larger cone has 8 times the volume of the smaller cone.
--------
Not 8 times more, 8 times as much.
