Answer:

A.206 cups

B.5 packages

C.85

Explanation:

Clarifiction answer

Also the reason why mine's was 206 because it had no option for 205 but 206 so it saids 206 is the right answer so if you say i'm wrong,it's the online homework's fault and not mines.

ps:You couldn't write the answer,you can only select the answer.

Answer:

The answer to this question can be defined as follows:

Explanation:

Calculating the volume of cone cup:


= (1)/(3)\pi r^2 h \\\\ = (1)/(3)* 3.14 * 4^2 * 11 \\\\ = (1)/(3)* 3.14 * 16 * 11 \\\\ = (1)/(3)* 3.14 * 176 \\\\ = 3.14 * 58.66 \cong 184.31 cm^3


\to 10 \ gal * 3,785\ (cm^3)/(gal) = 37,850\ cm^3\\\\\to 37,850 cm^3 * ((1 \ cone))/((184.31 \ cm^3)) * 205.4 \ cones

When buying 5 packages (250 cones):


\to 8 \ gal * 3,785 \ (cm^3)/(gal) = 30,280\ cm^3 \\\\\to 30,280 \ cm^3 * ((1\ cone))/((184.31 \ cm^3)) \cong \ 165 \ cones

Calculating the left over cones values:


\to 250 - 165 = 85
