Question

Sam has a cylindrical storage container 7 inches tall with a radius of 5 inches. How much cat litter will fit in the container? Round your answer to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

The amount cat litter will fit in the container V = 549.5
`in^(3)`

Explanation:

Height of the cylindrical storage h = 7 in

Radius of the cylindrical storage R = 5 in

The volume of the cylindrical storage is calculated by

`V = \pi R^(2) H`

`V = \pi` ×
`5^(2)` × 7

V = 549.5
`in^(3)`

This is the amount cat litter will fit in the container.
