Question

Find the volume of the solid. When appropriate, use pie and round your answer to the nearest hundred.

Answer 1

Given: A solid cylinder with diameter 8 inches and 25 inches height.

Required: Volume of cylinder.

Explanation:

Diameter = 8 inches

Radius, r = 8/2 = 4 inches

Height, h = 25 inches

Volume of cylinder is

$\begin{gathered} V=\pi r^2h \\ V=3.14\times4^2\times25 \end{gathered}$

So Volume is

$\begin{gathered} V=3.14\times16\times25 \\ V=1256 \end{gathered}$

Thus Volume is 1256 sq inches

Final Answer: Volume of solid cylinder is 1256 sq inches.
