Answer:

83.8 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone can be found using the below formula;


V=\pi* r^2*(h)/(3)

where pi = 3.14

r = radius of the base = diameter/2 = 8/2 = 4 feet

h = height of the cone = 5 feet.

Let's go ahead and substitute the above values into our formula and solve for V;


\begin{gathered} V=3.14*4^2*(5)/(3) \\ V=3.14*16*(5)/(3) \\ V=83.8ft^3 \end{gathered}
