Harold uses a cone shaped feeder, with a diameter of 7.5 centimeters and a height of 3.5 centimeters, to feed his tropical fish. How many cubic centimeters of feed can this feeder hold? Use 3.14 for pi. Enter your answer in the box as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.
Accepted Solution
A:
To find the volume of a cone you use the formula "1/3 x 3.14 x r^2 x h". Plug the formula into the problem. 1/3 x 3.14 x 3.75^2 x 3.5 =51.51. Rounded to the nearest tenth is 51.5. Hope this helps!
