The volume of water Vm^3, is directly proportional to the square of its cross-sectional radius, R m. If the radius of the pipe is increased by 150%, find the percentage increase of the volume.
\n" ); document.write( "========================
\n" ); document.write( "\"increased by 150%\" ---> 100% + 150% = 250%
\n" ); document.write( "r is multiplied by 2.5
\n" ); document.write( "V is multiplied by 2.5^2 = 6.25
\n" ); document.write( "An increase of 5.25 or 525%
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
