    600%
  3. C
    -600%
  4. D
    None of the above

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let the initial radius of the cylinder be and the constant height be .
The initial volume of the cylinder is given by:



The radius is increased by . Therefore, the new radius becomes:



The new volume with the updated radius is:



The change in volume () is:



To find the percentage change in volume:



Thus, the volume changes by .
