Answer:

40 1/2 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of biscuits the Jones eats daily = 2/3 of a packet

Total packets of biscuits = 27 packets

How long will 27 packets last the family?

= Total packets of biscuits / daily intake of biscuits of the Jones

= 27 ÷ 2/3

= 27 × 3/2

= 81 / 2

= 40 1/2 days

V= π r^2 h

r= radius
h= height

If the radius was 10 ft and the height was 12ft then the answer be about 3769.91.

However if it was reversed and the radius was 12ft and the height was 10 ft then the answer would be about 4523.89.

3769.92≈ π 10^2 12

or

4523.89≈ π 12^2 10
