Question

A cylindrical tank is half-full of oil. The cylinder has base radius of 100cm.The height of the cylinder is 250cm. 1 litre =1000cm cubed

How many litres of oil are in the tank? Round your answer to the nearest litre.

Answer 1

Explanation:

area of a cylinder=. V=πx r^2xh

so...

πx100^2x125=3926990.817 (the height is 125 because only half of it has oil)

3926990.817/1000=3927litres
