how many times do the volume and surface area of a cylinder increase if its radius is doubled and height remains same

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr2h (that first symbol is "pi" in case you can't tell, it sort of looks like an "n" to me...). So r is some value, and then we double it, what happens to the volume? Let's say original r = x, and doubled r = 2x.
Original volume = π(x)2h = πhx2
The new volume after doubling r would be π(2x)2h = 4πhx2
Therefore the new volume would be 4 times the original volume. Hope that helps! :)
