I think you have two cones, same top, same shape, one ending at the top, the other ending at the bottom.
You have the ratio of radii and the difference in volumes. The difference in heights of the two cones is 14cm.

volumetop=1/3 PI*r^2(h)
volumebottom=1/3 pi(2r)^2(h+14)
no subtracting the top from the bottom, you get the volume given. That ought to be enough.

763=1/3 (PI)r^2*(8(h+14)-h)
solve for r, the top radius. Then bottom radius is twice that.

Surface area=PI(rtop+rbottom)/2 * 14
and you have it.

I agree with Ms Sue, you did a sloppy job of proofing if done at all.
