Answer:

The volume of the silo is about 142.3 cubic meters. Try It! The volume of a sphere is twice the volume of a cone that has the same circular base and height. The formula for the volume of a sphere with radius r is V= r3.

Explanation:

Notice that if a cone and a sphere have equal radius, and if the cone has a height equal to its radius, then the cone will fill the sphere exactly four times. This means that the volume of the sphere is $4 times the volume of the cone.
