Answer:
Cylinder B is 25% smaller than cylinder
Step-by-step explanation:
Radius of cylinder A = 12 inches
Height of Cylinder A = 6 inches
So, volume of cylinder A = [tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex]
= [tex]\pi (12)^{2} (6)[/tex]
= [tex]864\pi [/tex]
Volume of cylinder B = [tex]648\pi [/tex]
Difference in Volumes = [tex]864\pi -648\pi [/tex]
= [tex]216\pi [/tex]
So, to find the percentage change in volume between cylinders A and B
[tex]\frac{216\pi}{864\pi} \times 100[/tex]
[tex]25\%[/tex]
Hence Cylinder B is 25% smaller than cylinder .
