Question

How much ice cream can fit in a chocolate cone with a height of 7 inches and a diameter of 4 inches?

87.92in^3 or 29.3in^3

Answer 1

29.3 in³

Explanation:

1. Volume of cone: V = ¹/₃ * πr²h

2. Find r: r = d/2 = 4/2 = 2 in

3. Plug in: V = ¹/₃ * π(2)²*7

4. Powers: V = ¹/₃ * π * 4 * 7

5. Multiply: V = ²⁸/₃π in³ ≈ 29.3 in³ (excluding outside of the cone)
