.
V=volume; r=radius; h=height
V=%281%2F3%29%28pi%29r%5E2h
%283V%29%2F%28%28pi%29h%29=r%5E2
r=sqrt%28%283V%29%2F%28%28pi%29h%29%29
r=sqrt%28%283%28150ml%29%29%2F%28%28pi%299cm%29%29
r=sqrt%28450cm%5E3%2F28.3cm%29
r=sqrt%2815.9cm%5E2%29
r=3.99cm
d=2r=2%283.99cm%29=7.98cm
ANSWER: Diameter of the top of the glass is 7.98cm.
