Question

A stack of round crackers are in the shape of an oblique cylinder. The diameter of each cracker is 6 centimeters and the height of each cracker is 0.4 centimeters. There are 26 crackers in the stack. What is the volume of the stack of round crackers to the nearest cubic centimeter

Answer 1

Answer: 294cm

Explanation:

The volume of a oblique cylinder is given by:

Volume= πr^2h

where

π = 3.14

r = radius

h = height

Radius= diameter/2 = 6/2 = 3

We have all the values, so we put it in the formulae so we can get the answer.

Volume= πr^2h

= 3.14 × 3 × 3 × (0.4 × 26)

= 294cm
