Question

a grain silo has a cylindrical shape. its radius is 9ft, and height is 52ft. what is the volume of the silo?use the value of 3.14 for pieround to the nearest whole number

Answer 1

Given:

Radius = 9 ft

Height = 52 ft

Volume of cylindrical (silo) is:

$\text{Volume}=\pi r^2h$$\begin{gathered} r=9 \\ h=52 \\ \pi=3.14 \end{gathered}$$\begin{gathered} \text{Volume}=\pi r^2h \\ =3.14\times(9)^2\times52 \\ =3.14\times81\times52 \\ =254.34\times52 \\ =13225.68 \end{gathered}$

Nearst whole number is 13226
