Correct Answer: 2 : 1
Solution : Let the radius and height of cylinder-1 and cylinder-2 be r, h, and R, H respectively As given, r : R = 2 : 1 h : H = 1 : 2 Volume of a cylinder = $\pi r^2 h$ Let their volumes be $V_1$ and $V_2$, So Ratio, $\frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{\pi r^2 h}{\pi R^2 H}$ $⇒\frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{2^2\times 1}{1^2\times 2} = \frac{2}{1}$ $⇒V_1: V_2 = 2 : 1$ Hence, the correct answer is 2 : 1.
