When we take height=h and radios of base=r then volume of cone=?r^2*h/3 if radios of the base is doubled then R=2r and height=h so, volume is =?(2r)^2*h/3 therefore, ratio of the volume of latter cone to the smaller cone = ?r^2*h/3/?(2r)^2*h/3 =r^2/4r^2 =1/4 =1:4 Answer

Let the radius, height of small cone & large cone be r, R and h (since height is same) respectively. Given that R=2r Volume is given by v=pi*(r^2)*h/3. Let VL & VS be volumes of large and small cones respectively. therefore, VL/VS=(R^2)/(r^2)=4/1. Hence required ratio is 4:1

Formula for the volume of a cone is 1/3 pi r^2 h so assuming in one case the radius is R and in another case the radius is 2R, we get the desired ratio = (1/3 pi (2R)^2 h) / (1/3 pi (R)^2 h) = 4 Ans

Will 59.4% marks read as 60% or not in Aggregate/gross marks? Without decimal what will be the Aggregate /gross marks of 59.4% marks. 

No, because if you round off to 59.4%, you will get 59%. If it could have been 59.5% or more, then you could have round it off to 60%.
