Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not complete, we need to be given the dimensions of the big cylindrical water bottle. Let us assume, that the big bottles has a dimension of radius 3 in and height 5 in.
Solution:
Firstly, we need to find the volume of the big cylindrical bottle, then we find the volume of the small cone.
Volume of the cylindrical bottle = πr²h = π(3²)5 = 45π in³
Volume of the small cone = πr²h/3 = π(1²)(3/3) = π in³
Therefore the number if cups required to fill the water bottle is the ratio of the volume of the cylinder to the volume of the small cone. Hence:
number of cone cups = 45π in³ / π in³ = 45 cups
Hence 45 cups of the cone would be needed to fill the cylindrical bottle
