Answer:

it will hold 25.13 cubic inches of melted ice cream

Explanation:

first we get the cone formula because a melted ice cream cone will have a flat top, making it a cone

the cone formula is π*r^2 * h /3

so we input radius and height

π*2^2 * 6 /3

then we simplfy

π * 4 * 6 /3

12.56 *6/3

75.398/3

25.13
