Two cylinders are similar. The volume of the smaller cylinder is 108 cubic feet with a radius of 3 feet. What is the volume of the larger cylinder in cubic feet with a radius of 5 feet?
----------
Vol+=+pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah
The r is squared, volume is a function of r^2
--------
108/3^2 = v/5^2
9v = 108*25
v = 300 cu ft
