Question

A trash can is in the shape of a cylinder. It has a radius of 2 feet and a height of 5 feet. What is the volume of the trash can? Round to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

The volume of the trash can is 62.8

Answer 2

Answer: 62.8 cubic feet.

Explanation:

The volume of cylinder is given by :-

`V=\pi r^2 h`, where r is radius and h is height.

Given: Radius = 2 feet

Height = 5 feet

Then the volume of cylinder will be :-

`V=(3.14)(2)^2(5)\\\\\Rightarrow\ V=62.8\text{ cubic feet}`

Hence, the volume of cylinder is 62.8 cubic feet.
