If the height of a cone is tripled, the volume of the cone is how many times larger?

Look at the formula for the volume of a cone:

V = (1/3)* height* area of base

if you multiply the height times 3, without changing any of the OTHER dimensions of the cone, what will that do to the volume?

This is not a "tough" problem....
