Question 900598: The Ice Cream Depot has two sizes of waffle cones. The small cone has a volume of 1.8in^3. The radius and height of the small cone were doubled to make the large one. What is the volume of the large waffle cone?
I know that I have to find the cubic root of 1.8 but, I don't know what to do after that. Could you please help me?

v, volume for small cone
V, volume for large cone with doubled height and radius

v=h%2Api%2Ar%5E2=1.8%2Ainch%5E3

V=%282h%29pi%282r%29%5E2
8%2Ah%2Api%2Ar%5E2
V=8%2Av
V=8%281.8%29
highlight%28V=14.4%29-----Note that the question was, "What is the volume of the large waffle cone?"
