Question

Mia is calculating the volume of the cylinder below using the following work. A cylinder with height of 47 meters and diameter of 35 meters. V = (17.5) squared (47) = (306.25) (47) = 14,393.75 meters cubed. What was Mia’s first error?

Answer 1

Answer:

She forgot to include pi as a factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Mia’s first error was " she forgot to multiply π by (17.5)²(47) "

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the volume of a cylinder is V = π r² h, where

• r is the radius of the base of the cylinder
• h is the height of the cylinder

∵ The diameter of the base of the cylinder is 35 meters

∵ The radius = $\frac{1}{2}$ × diameter

∴ The radius = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 35 = 17.5 meters

∴ r = 17.5

∵ The height of the cylinder = 47 meters

∴ h = 47

- Substitute r and h in the formula of the volume

∴ V = π (17.5)²(47)

∵ Mai's first step is V = (17.5)²(47)

- She forgot to put π

∴ Her first error is she forgot to multiply π by (17.5)²(47)

Mia’s first error was " she forgot to multiply π by (17.5)²(47) "
