Answer :

  • 240 ft³

Explanation :

We know,


{ \longrightarrow \qquad{\boldsymbol {\pmb{ Volume_((cylinder)) = \pi {r}^(2) h \: }}}}

Where,

  • r is the radius of the cylinder. Here, diameter is 5 ft, so the radius will be 2.5 ft

  • h is the height of the cylinder. Here, h is 12 ft

  • Here, we will take the value of π as 3.14 approximately .

Substituting the values in the formula :


{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ { \sf{ Volume_((cylinder)) = 3.14 * ({2.5})^(2) * 12 \: }}}}


{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ { \sf{ Volume_((cylinder)) = 3.14 * 6.25 * 12 \: }}}}


{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ { \sf{ Volume_((cylinder)) = 3.14 * 75 \: }}}}


{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \boldsymbol { \pmb{ Volume_((cylinder)) = 235.5 \: }}}}

Therefore,

  • The volume of the cylinder is 240 ft approxiamtely.
