Question

A cereal company packs its oatmeal into cylindrical containers. The height of each container is 10 inches and the radius of the bottom is 3 inches. What is the volume of the box to the nearest cubic inch?

Answer 1

The volume of any cylinder is: V=pi*r^2*h

Insert your values and you get: 

V=3.14*3^2*10=3.14*9*10=282,6 inches^3
