Question

Mr. James has cylindrical beakers that measure 4 inches in diameter and are 9 inches high. What is the volume contained within the beakers? Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. 56.52 cubic inches 100.34 cubic inches 113.04 cubic inches 226.08 cubic inches

Answer 1

The equation to find the volume of a cylinder is V = pi•r^2•h.
The radius is half of the diameter.  Since Mr. James' beakers have a diameter of 4, their radius would be 2.  2 squared is 4.
Their height is 9 inches.
V = 3.14•4•9
V = 3.14•36
V = 113.04
The answer is C, or 113.04 cubic inches.

Answer 2

The answer is C, or 113.04 cubic inches.
