Answer:

42.42 in³ volume of juice

Explanation:

Jim is making frozen juice treats that are in the shape of a cone.

The volume of a cone = πr²h/3

From the above question:

h = 3 inches

Diameter = 3 inches

Radius = Diameter/2

= 3/2

= 1.5 inches

The volume for 1 frozen treat =

= π × 1.5² × 3/3

= 7.07 in³

The approximate volume of juice needed for Jim to make 6 juice treats

is calculated as:

1 juice treat = 7.07 in³

6 juice treats = x

Cross Multiply

x = 6 × 7.07 in³

x = 42.42 in³
