Question

16. A large waffle cone has a diameter of 3 inches and a height of 8 inches. Two scoops of

✓ ice cream have been stacked on top of the cone, after it was filled. The scoops are
completely round and have a diameter the same as the cone.

Find the volume of the two scoops of ice cream combined with the ice cream inside the
cone.

Answer 1

(1/3) (44.5)π cm3.

Explanation:

The volume of the two scoops of ice cream combined with the ice cream inside the cone can be calculated as follows:

Volume of cone = (1/3) π (3/2)2h = (1/3) π (4.5)8 = (1/3) (35.5)π

Volume of scoop = (1/6) π d3 = (1/6) (3)π

Total volume = (1/3) (35.5)π + 2(1/6) (3)π = (1/3) (44.5)π cm3.

Answer 2

The volume is 23 inches long.
