We can use formula of volume of cylinder to calculate volume of silo.


Volume\; of \; cylinder = \pi r^2 h

Plug the given values of radius r=7 ft and height h= 33 ft


Volume\; of \; cylinder = \pi (7)^2 (33)


Volume\; of \; cylinder = \pi (49) (33)


Volume\; of \; cylinder = \pi (1617)

So the required volume of silo is [tex] 1617 \pi [\tex]
