Detailed Solution

It is given that the ratio of the radii of the two cylinders is 2:3.
We are also given that the ratio of their heights is 5:3.
Assume that the cylinders are one with radius and height Question Imageand Question Imageand the other with radius and height, Question Imageand Question Imagerespectively.
IMG_256       IMG_257So, as we are given that the ratio of the radii is 2:3, we can say that,
r R = 2 3 (1)  
As we are given that the ratio of heights of cylinders is 5:3, we can say that,
h H = 5 3 (2)  
Now let us consider the formula for volume of the cylinder.
Volume=π× Radius 2 × Height  
Using this formula, we get the volume of first cylinder as,
Volume=π r 2 h  
Using the above formula, we get the volume of second cylinder as,
Volume=π R 2 H  
Now let us consider the ratio of volumes of the cylinders.
π r 2 h π R 2 H r 2 R 2 × h H r R 2 × h H  
Using equations (1) and (2) we can write the above ratio as,
2 3 2 × 5 3 4 9 × 5 3 20 27  
Hence, the ratio of volumes of the two cylinders as 20 27  .
