Answer:

  B.  Figure B

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is difficult to read. We assume the height of the pyramid is 9, and the radius of the cylinder is 1.

The pyramid volume is ...

  V = 1/3Bh

  V = 1/3(4²)(9) = 48 . . . cubic units

__

The cylinder volume is ...

  V = πr²h

  V = π(1²)(48) = 48π . . . cubic units

The cylinder has π times as much volume as the pyramid. Figure B is larger.

_____

Additional comment

If the diameter (not the radius) of the cylinder is 1 unit, then its volume is 12π cubic units and the pyramid has more volume.
