Question

A standard size base drum has a diameter of 22 inches and is 18 inches deep. Find the volume of the drum

Answer 1

The formula to find the volume of a cylinder is V=
`\pi r^(2)`h so you would first have to find the radius which would be 11 because half of 22 is 11 and the radius is half of the diameter. You would replace r with 11 and replace h with 18 so you should have V=
`\pi 11^(2)`18 and then you just solve it. You should get V≈6842.39
