You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Volume of cylinder/ volume of cone = number of cones
Volume of cylinder
radius =30mm
height = 50 mm
v= pi * 30*30*50
Volume of cone
radius = 1mm
height = 10mm
V= 1/3 *pi*r^2h
= 1/3 * pi * 1^2*10*10
%28pi+%2A+30%2A30%2A50%29%2F%28%281%2F3%29+%2A+pi+%2A+1%5E2%2A10%2A10%29
=1350 cones
