Answer:

The monument contains 24.74 m³ of marbles

Explanations:

The shape of the monument is a cylinder

The radius of the cylinder, r = 1.5 m

The altitude (height) of the monument, h = 3.5 m

The cubic meters of marbles contained by the monument is the volume of the moument.

Since the monument is cylindrical, we will calculate the volume of the cylinder.

V = πr²h

V = 3.142 x 1.5² x 3.5

V = 24.74 m³

The monument contains 24.74 m³ of marbles
