Question

the volume of a right circular cylinder with a base diameter of 2.4 ft and a height of 6.1 ft is ___ cubic feet.use 3.14 for pi and round only your final answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

The volume of a right circular cylinder is

`V=\pi(r)^2h`

Where r = 1.2 feet and h = 6.1 feet. Replacing these values, we have the following

`V=3.14(1.2)^2(6.1)\approx27.58ft^3`

Hence, the volume is 27.58 cubic feet.
