Explanation:

The volume of a cone can be calculated using the formula:

V = (1/3)πr^2h

where r is the radius of the base, h is the height of the cone, and π is a constant approximately equal to 3.14.

In this case, the diameter of the base of the cone is 8 cm, which means the radius is half of that, or 4 cm. The height of the cone is given as 10 cm. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

V = (1/3)π(4 cm)^2(10 cm)

V ≈ 167.55 cubic centimeters

Therefore, the volume of the paper drinking cone is closest to 167.55 cubic centimeters.
