Question

A cylinder has a height of 16 meters and a diameter of 26 meters. What is its volume? Use ​ ≈ 3.14 and round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

V= 5224.96

Explanation:

To find the volume for a cylinder, you need to use the formula

V=(pi)r^2h.

The question gives is the diameter. The radius is half of the diameter, so you would divide by 2.

16/2 = 8.

Now we plug in the numbers and solve.

V= (pi) 8^2(26)

V= (pi)(64)(26)

V=(pi)(1664)

V= 5224.96
