Question

Lisa made a chocolate milkshake in the blender for her daughter. The milkshake occupies just a little more than 75 cubic inches of space in the blender pitcher. When serving the milkshake to her daughter, she has three glasses to choose from. Determine whether or not each of the three classes is large enough to contain all of the chocolate milkshake that Lisa made for her daughter. Use 3.14 to approximate .

Glass A with a height of 2.1 inches and a diameter of 5 inches is
to contain the entire chocolate milkshake.

Glass B with a height of 2.7 inches and a radius of 4.6 inches is
to contain the entire chocolate milkshake.

Glass C with a height of 3.1 inches and a radius of 2.7 inches is
to contain the entire chocolate milkshake.

Answer:

  Only Glass B is large enough

Step-by-step explanation:

For repetitive calculations, I like to use a calculator or spreadsheet. The attachment shows the volumes for the three glasses. Only Glass B has a volume that exceeds 75 cubic inches.

Note that Glass A has a diameter of 5 inches, so a radius of 2.5 inches.
