Answer:

35 cm

Explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by ...

V = πr²h

We want to find h for the given volume and diameter. First, we must convert the given values to compatible units.

1 L = 1000 cm³, so 99 L = 99,000 cm³

60 cm diameter = 2 × 30 cm radius

So, we have ...

99,000 cm³ = π(30 cm)²h

99,000/(900π) cm = h ≈ 35.01 cm

The oil is 35 cm deep in the drum.
