Answer:
The approximate volume of the cone is 14 cube inches.
Explanation:
Circumference of the base of the cylinder = 3π inches
Height of the cylindrical piece of wood = 6 inches
volume of a cone =


h
But,
circumference = 2πr
3π = 2πr
r =

= 1.5 inches
Radius of the base of the cylinder is 1.5 inches.
So that;
volume of cone =
x
x
x 6
=
x
x
x 6
= 14.143
volume of cone = 14.143 cube inches
The approximate volume of the cone is 14 cube inches.
