<h2><u>Answer: 1/12</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation: 2/3 / 8/1 is actually multiplying the first number by the reciprocal of the second. So 2/3 x 1/8. That equals 0.08333... or 1/12.

A cylinder is placed within a cube. The diameter of the cylinder is equal to the length of each side of the cube. What is the vo

The volume of a shape is the amount of space in it.

<em>The volume outside the cylinder, but inside the cube is 214.6 cubic inches</em>

The given parameter is:

l = 10 ---- length of the cube

So, the volume of the cube is:

V_1 = l^3

V_1 = 10^3

V_1 = 1000

The volume of the cylinder is:

V_2 = \pi r^2h

The diameter (d) of the cylinder equals the length of the cube.

This means that:

d = l

d = 10

Divide by 2 to calculate the radius of the cylinder

r = \frac{10}{2}

r = 5

Also, the height of the cube is::

h =l

h =10

So, we have:

V_2 = \pi r^2h

V_2 = \pi \times 5^2 \times 10

V_2 = \pi \times 25 \times 10

V_2 = \pi \times 250

V_2 = 785.4

So, the volume (V) outside the cylinder is:

V = V_1 - V_2

V = 1000 - 785.4

V = 214.6

Hence, the volume outside the cylinder is 214.6 cubic inches

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

There are 1.25 days in 30 hours or 1 1/4 days in 30 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know one day is 24 hours. So if we divide 30 hours by 24 hours (or one whole day) then we get 1.25 days or also known as 1 1/4 days
