Question

A circular drum has a radius of 4.2m and a height of 3.5m. How many full

bags of wheat can be emptied if the space required for one wheat bag is
5.39m³.​

Answer 1

Answer: 45 Full of bags.

Explanation:

The volume of the drum can be calculated using the formula for the volume of a cylinder: V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

V = π(4.2m)^2(3.5m)

V ≈ 246.73 m³

To find out how many bags of wheat can be emptied into the drum, we need to divide the volume of the drum by the space required for one bag:

246.73 m³ ÷ 5.39 m³/bag ≈ 45.81 bags

Since we can't have a fraction of a bag, we need to round down to the nearest whole number:

Number of bags = 45

Therefore, 45 full bags of wheat can be emptied into the drum.

Answer 2

he volume of the drum can be calculated as follows:

Volume of drum = πr²h

= π(4.2m)²(3.5m)

≈ 246.33 m³

To find out how many full bags of wheat can be emptied into the drum, we need to divide the volume of the drum by the volume of one wheat bag:

Number of full bags of wheat = Volume of drum ÷ Volume of one bag

= 246.33 m³ ÷ 5.39 m³

≈ 45.72

Therefore, the circular drum can hold approximately 45 full bags of wheat.
