The radii of the bases of two cylinders are in the ratio 3 : 4 and their height are in the ratio 4 : 3. The ratio of their volume is :

A. 2 : 3

B. 3 : 2

C. 3 : 4

D. 4 : 3

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Let their radii be 3x, 4x and heights be 4y, 3y
Ratio of their volumes :
$$\eqalign{ & = \frac{{\pi \times {{\left( {3x} \right)}^2} \times 4y}}{{\pi \times {{\left( {4x} \right)}^2} \times 3y}} \cr & = \frac{{36}}{{48}} \cr & = \frac{3}{4}\,Or\,3:4 \cr} $$
