Question 6 • FL-1205040-M/J Grade 7 Mathematics B -GF

Which cylinder has the greatest volume?

Answer
A
a cylinder with a height of 9 cm and a radius of 9 cm
B
a cylinder with a height of 12 cm and a radius of 6 cm
C
a cylinder with a height of 6 cm and a radius of 12 cm
D
a cylinder with a height of 15 cm and a radius of 3 cm

Explanation

A cylinder’s volume is V = πr²h. Comparing the values of r²h gives A: 9² × 9 = 729, B: 6² × 12 = 432, C: 12² × 6 = 864, and D: 3² × 15 = 135. Since 864 is greatest, the cylinder with a radius of 12 cm and a height of 6 cm has the greatest volume.
