Answer:
≈ 3927 litres
Explanation:
The volume (V) of a cylinder is calculated as
V = Ah ( A is the area of the base and h the height )
Note that h of oil = 250 ÷ 2 = 125 cm ( since half full )
V = πr²h
= π × 100² × 125 = 1250000π cm³ ( divide by 1000 )
=
= 1250π litres ≈ 3927 litres ( to the nearest litre )
