Question

1. A paper cup designed to hold popcorn is in the shape of a cone. The diameter of the cup is 12 centimeters and the height is 16 centimeters. What is the volume of popcorn the cup could hold? Use 3.14 for pi. Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.

Answer 1

Answer, as a decimal, in the box. 602.88

Answer 2

Volume of popcorn cup = 602.88 cm^3

Explanation:

Volume of a cone = 1/3 πr^2 h

Given: π = 3.14, r = 12/2 = 6 cm, h = 16 cm

Now plug in these values in the above formula, we get

Volume of popcorn cup = 1/3 * 3.14*6^2*16

= 1/3*3.14 *36*16

= 3.14 *12*16

Volume of popcorn cup = 602.88 cm^3

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.
