When a cylinder is cut into the largest cone, 16 cubic decimeters are cut off. What is the volume of the cylinder? What is the volume of the cone?

When a cylinder is cut into the largest cone, 16 cubic decimeters are cut off. What is the volume of the cylinder? What is the volume of the cone?

The volume of a cone with the same base and equal height is 1 / 3 of that of a cylinder
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 16 / 2 * 3 = 24 cubic decimeters
The cone volume is 24 / 3 = 8 cubic decimeters
