Question

What is the difference in the volume of a cylinder having a radius of 4 and a height of 8, and the volume of a rectangular prism having dimensions of length = 10, width = 7 and height = 6? Use 3.14.

Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

volume of cylinder: V=Sđ*h=R^2*3.14*8

volume of rectangular prism: V=Sđ*h=10*7*6

Please do the calculations yourself for the above 2 calculations

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: 18.08

===========================================

Work Shown:

The cylinder has volume of...

V = pi*r^2*h

V = 3.14*4^2*8

V = 401.92

----------------

The rectangular prism has a volume of...

V = L*W*H

V = 10*7*6

V = 420

----------------

Subtract the two results:

420-401.92 = 18.08

The cylinder has roughly 18.08 more cubic units of volume compared to the rectangular prism.
