Question

Mia has a conical container filled with chocolates. She knows that the volume of the container is equal to one-third of the product of , the square of the radius of the base of the container, and the height of the container. Mia measured the height of the container and found it to be 14 centimeters. She also measured the radius of the base of the container and found it to be 4 centimeters. If V represents the volume of the conical container, then which of the following equations can be used to calculate the volume of the container?

Answer 1

The volume of the conatiner is caluclated. By V=13 x r 2 h

Answer 2

V=234.45 cubic cm

Explanation:

Given : Mia measured the height of the container and found it to be 14 centimeters. She also measured the radius of the base of the container and found it to be 4 centimeters.

To Find: If V represents the volume of the conical container, then which of the following equations can be used to calculate the volume of the container?

Solution :

Since she know thatvolume of container is
`(1)/(3) \pi r^(2) h`

Height of container = 14 cm

Radius of base of container = 4 cm

Volume= V

Putting values in formula we get:

`V=(1)/(3) \pi*4^(2) *14`

Thus this equation is the required equation

Use π =3.14

`V=(1)/(3) *3.14*4^(2) *14`

V=234.45 cubic cm
