Best Answer

The volume of a cylinder is [ (pi) x (Radius)2 x (length) ] .

When the radius changes from [R] to [1.5 R], the square of the radius
changes from [R2] to [2.25 R2] .

So the volume increases by 125% ... more than double !


Nonononono, good try, but you have to remember, that R+0.5 does not equal to 1.5R. Therefore, you cannot determine the increase in the volume.
