Question 1187682: The volume V of a right circular cone varies jointly as the square of its base radius and
its altitude h.
If 16𝜋 𝑖𝑛
3
if clay is needed to mold a right circular cone of base radius 4 inches
and altitude 3 inches, how much more clay is needed to remold the clay to form a
right circular cone with base radius of 2 inches and altitude of 12 in?

No more clay is needed.

The existing clay is just precisely enough to remold.



Since this problem is a joke question,  a good style requires me to stop my explanations at this point,

leaving it to the interested reader to think out the rest to the end on his  (or her)  own.
