c) The height of each cylinder in a set of food-storage containers is 30 cm.
The radius of the largest container is 10 cm.
The volume of the smallest container is one-third the volume of the largest
container.
The volume of the middle-sized container is two-thirds the volume of the largest
container. What is the volume of each container?

Answer 1

9424.78cm^3

3141.59cm^3

6282.67 cm^3

Explanation:

the equation for a cylinder's volume is pi(r)^2(height)

The volume of the largest cylinder is 3.14(10)^2(30) = 9424.78cm^3 (remember the units!)

The volume of t he smallest cylinder is 1/3 the largest or: 9424.78/3 = 3141.59cm^3 (remember the units!)

The volume of the medium cylinder is 2/3 the largest or 9424.78(2/3) = 6282.67 cm^3
