    F = 3/r.

    The formula for the volume of a cylinder is

    V=πr²h. We know that h=2r, so this gives us:

    V = πr² (2r) = 2πr³

    The surface area of a cylinder is the sum of the areas of all of the faces. The bottom and top are circles, whose areas are both given by A=πr². The lateral area of a cylinder is given by the circumference multiplied by the height. C = 2πr, and the height is 2r, so the lateral area would be

    A = (2πr) (2r) = 4πr². This gives us a total surface area of

    SA = 4πr²+πr²+πr² = 6πr².

    The ratio of surface area to volume would be:

    SA/V = 6πr²/2πr³. After simplifying, we have f=3/r.
