We would apply the formula for determining the volume of a cone which is expressed as
Volume = 1/3 x pi x radius^2 x height
From the information given,
height = 7 1/2 = 7.5
Diameter = 5 5/8 = 5.625
radius = diameter/2 = 5.625/2
radius = 2.8125pi = 3.14
Thus,
Volume = 1/3 x 3.14 x 2.8125^2 x 7.5
Volume = 62.095
by rounding to the nearest tenth,
Volume = 62.1 cubic inches
The closest measurement is option D
