Solution
original volume = πr²l
new radius is r/3 let new lwngth be L
new volume = π(r/3)² L
π(r/3)² L = πr²l
r²/9 L = r²l
1/9 L = l
L = 9 l
length will be 9 times the original length
new radius is r/3 let new lwngth be L
new volume = π(r/3)² L
π(r/3)² L = πr²l
r²/9 L = r²l
1/9 L = l
L = 9 l
length will be 9 times the original length
