Question

Hayley is filling small cone-shaped cups with clay for an art project. Each cup has a height of 4 centimeters and a diameter of 1.5 centimeters. If Hayley has 25 cm³ of clay, how many cones can she fill? *need answer NOW*

Answer 1

Answer:

10.6 cones

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

h= 4cm

d= 1.5cm

r= d/2= 0.75cm

The expression for the volume of a cone is

V= 1/3πr^2h

substitute

V= 1/3*3.142*(0.75)^2*4

V=  1/3*3.142*2.25

V=1/3*7.0695

V= 2.3565cm^3

Since the volume of 1 cone is 2.4cm^3

She can fill

=25/2.3565

=10.6 cones

About 10.6 cones
