You can put this solution on YOUR website!
r = radius of cylinder A
r = radius of cylinder B

Cylinder A, finding radius:
10%2Api%2Ar%5E2=500
r%5E2=500%2F%2810pi%29
r%5E2=50%2Fpi------You will use THIS...
r=sqrt%2850%2Fpi%29

Find volume of cylinder B:
30%2Api%2A%2850%2Fpi%29
volume, 1500 cubic feet.
