Answer:

Volume is 10428 cubic ft.

Explanation:

Given :-

  • Radius of grain silo is 9ft and height is 41ft

To find:-

  • Volume of grain silo

Solution:-

  • Volume of cylindrical grain silo :- πr²h

Putting the known values ,

Volume:- 3.14 × 9² × 41 cubic ft.

Volume :- 10427.94 cubic ft.

rounding off to nearest whole number ,

Volume :- 10428 cubic ft.

Answer:

As Per Provided Information

Radius of cylindrical shape silo 9 ft

Height of cylindrical shape silo 41 ft

We have been asked to determine the volume of cylindrical silo .


\boxed{\sf \: Volume_((Cylindrical\:Silo)) = \pi {r}^(2)h}

Substituting the given value in above formula and we obtain


\qquad\longrightarrow\sf \:Volume_((Cylindrical\:Silo)) = 3.14 * {9}^(2) * 41 \\ \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow\sf \:Volume_((Cylindrical\:Silo)) = 3.14 * 81 * 41 \\ \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow\sf \:Volume_((Cylindrical\:Silo)) = 3.14 * 3321 \\ \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow\sf \:Volume_((Cylindrical\:Silo)) = 10427.94 \: {ft}^(3) \\ \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow\sf \:Volume_((Cylindrical\:Silo)) = 10428 \: {ft}^(3)
