Question

The eight of a cone-shaped container is 18 centimeters and it’s radius is 7 centimeters. Meg fills the container completely with honey. Every day Meg uses 21 cubic centimeters of honey from the container to make honey cookies. After how many days will the container be empty? Round the answer to the nearest whole number. (Use 3.14) A- 44 B- 66 C- 78 D- 92

Answer 1

Hello!

The find the volume of a cone you divide the product of the base and height by 3. First we find the area using $\pi$r².

A=49(3.14)=153.86

Now we multiply this by the height.

153.86(18)=2769.48

Now we divide by 3.

2769.48/3=923.16

Now we divide this number by 21 to see how many days it will take for the container to become empty.

923.16/21=43.96≈44

Therefore, our answer is A) 44 days.

I hope this helps!
