Question

A snowcone cup at the country fair is 15 cm tall and has a diameter of 8 cm if the cup is full just the top what is the volume of the cup used to. For for a party and round to the nearest whole cubic centimeter

Answer 1

2827 cubic centimetre

Explanation:

The cup is cylindrical in shape and it is full to the top.

The height of the cup is 15 cm and its diameter is 8 cm (radius = 4 cm).

The volume of a cylinder is given as:

`V = \pi r^2h`

where r = radius

h = height

The volume of the liquid in the cup is:

`V = \pi * 15^2 * 4`

V = 2827.43 cubic centimetre ≅ 2827 cubic centimetre
