Question

Suppose a jumbo ice cream cone is filled with vanilla and strawberry ice cream at a ratio of 2:1. If the diameter of the cone is 3 inches and the height is 8 inches, what is the volume of strawberry ice cream in the cone? (to nearest tenth in3)

Answer 1

6.3 in^3

Explanation:

Ummmmm, 2pi=6.28=3

That is the answer in the USA test prep!

Answer 2

Fraction of strawberry = 1 / (2 + 1)
Fraction of strawberry = 1/3

Volume = πr²h/3
Volume = π(1.5)²(8)/3
Volume = 6π

Volume of strawberry = 1/3 x 6π
Volume of strawberry = 2π in³
