The video tutorial explains how to calculate the volume of a larger right circular cone given that its radius is 2.5 times and its height is 7 times that of a smaller cone with a known volume of 4 cubic meters. The tutorial walks through the formula for the volume of a cone, applies scaling factors to the radius and height, and calculates the new volume. An alternative approach is also discussed, emphasizing the impact of scaling on volume.

What is the expression for the volume of the larger cone before simplification?

• 1/3 * pi * (3r)^2 * 6h

• 1/3 * pi * (2r)^2 * 5h
