Question

A company has cups for its water cooler. Each cup has a height of 14 cm and the base has a radius of 3 cm. How much water is needed to fill 125 cups

Answer 1

125 cups can hold 49.5 liters of water.

Explanation:

The volume of the cup will tell how much water is needed to fill each cup.

The volume of the cup can be determined by the formula

V= base area* height

V= πr²* h

V= 22/7 (3)² (14)

V= 396cm³

125 cups can hold 125 * 396 cm³= 49500cm³

But 1 cm³= 0.001 Liters

Therefore = 49500*0.001= 49.5 liters

125 cups can hold 49.5 liters of water.
