Answer:

71.99 in³

Explanation:

The formula to apply is that of volume of a cone where;

V=π*r²*h/3 --------where V is the volume of the container, r is the radius of the container and h is the height of the container

Given that : π=3.14 , r is 2.5 inches , h= 11 inches then apply values to the container as;

V= 3.14 * 2.5²* 11/3

V= 3.14 * 6.25 * 3.67

V= 71.9948

V= 71.99 in³
