Question

A cone-shaped popcorn cup has a radius of 5 centimeters and a height of 9 centimeters. How many cubic centimeters of popcorn can the cup hold?
Use 3.14 for π (pi).
The volume of the popcorn cup is __ cm^3

Answer 1

Answer:

The cup can hold 235.5 cubic cm of popcorn.

Step-by-step explanation:

A cone shaped popcorn cup has a radius of 5 cm and a height of 9 cm.

Use 3.14 as an approximation for pi.

Now, to find cubic cm of popcorn the cup can hold.

Radius (r)= 5 cm

Height (h)= 9 cm

$\pi$= 3.14 (as per question).

So, to get the cubic cm of popcorn the cup can hold we put formula of volume:

Volume= $\pi$r$x^{2}$ h$\frac{x}{y}$ 3

Volume= 3.14 x 5$x^{2}$ × 9$\frac{x}{y}$3

Volume= 3x14 x 25 x 3

Volume= 235.5 cubic cm.
