A silo has a radius of 10 meters, like the one shown, and is filled from top to bottom with rice. If rice sells for $75 a cubic meter, what is the total value of rice in this silo?

Answer:

$1500

Explanation:

Since the radius of the silo is 10 meters, then the total length of the silo is 20 meters. So now we multiply 75 by 20

75 x 20 = 1500

So the value of the rice in the silo is $1500
