The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Concept: Volume formulas: Cylinder: \[ V_c=\pi r^2 h \] Cone: \[ V_{cone}=\frac13\pi r^2 h \] Hemisphere: \[ V_h=\frac23\pi r^3 \] Given same radius and height. For hemisphere, height equals radius. Thus \[ h=r \]

Step 1: Substitute \(h=r\). Cylinder: \[ V_c=\pi r^3 \] Cone: \[ V_{cone}=\frac13\pi r^3 \] Hemisphere: \[ V_h=\frac23\pi r^3 \]

Step 2: Find ratio. \[ \pi r^3: \frac13\pi r^3: \frac23\pi r^3 \] Multiplying by 3: \[ 3:1:2 \] Hence, \[ \boxed{3:1:2} \] \[ \boxed{\text{Answer = (C)}} \]
