Correct Answer: 4 : 7


Solution : The ratio of heights of two cylinders = 7 : 9
Ratio of diameters = ratio of radii = 6 : 7
Ratio of volumes of two cylinders
= $\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r_1^2h_1}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r_2^2h_2}$
= $\frac{r_1^2h_1}{r_2^2h_2}$
= $\frac{6^2×7}{7^2×9}$
= $\frac{4}{7}$
= 4 : 7
Hence, the correct answer is 4 : 7.
