Given :

Volume of cylinder  = 24 cm³

We know, 

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

And, Volume of cone = 1/3πr²h

Radius of cylinder = Radius of cone

But, Height of cone = 2× height of cylinder

Now, putting values, we get

So, Volume of cone = 1/3 × πr² × 2h

= 2/3 × πr²h

= 2/3 × 24

= 16 cm³

 

Thus, Volume of cone is 16 cm³
