Correct Answer: 24 : 25
Solution :
Let the heights of the cylinders be $2x$ and $3x$ and radii be $6y$ and $5y$ respectively.
Volume of 1st cylinder : Volume of 2nd cylinder
$=\pi r_1^2h_1:\pi r_2^2h_2$
$=\pi \times (6y)^2\times 2x:\pi \times(5y)^2\times3x$
$=36y^2\times 2x:25y^2\times3x$
$=72:75$
$=24 : 25$
Hence, the correct answer is 24 : 25.
