Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of cylinder:
<u>Bottom cylinder:</u>
1 inch = 2.54 cm
diameter = 14 in
r = 14/2 = 7 in
r = 7 *2.54 = 17.78 cm
h = 4 in = 4*2.54 = 10.16 cm
Volume = 3* 17.78 * 17.78 * 10.16
= 9635.59 in³
<u>Upper cylinder:</u>
diameter = 12 in
r = 12/2 = 6in
r = 6*2.54 = 15.24 cm
h = 12 in = 12*2.54 = 30.48 cm
Volume = 3 * 15.24 *15.24 * 30.48
= 21237.63 in³
Volume of the object = 9635.59 + 21237.63
= 30873 cm³
