Answer:
height(h)= 5in
radius(r) =2.5in
Volume(V)= pi ×r^2 ×h
V=(22/7)2.5^2×5=98.21in^3
$0.12=1 in^3
Amount to be paid= 0.12×98.21
=$11.79

Explanation:
Firstly, find the volume of the jar. When the filled with the beads to the brim, it will assume the shape of the jar, hence their volume will be equal. We assume that the jar is a cylinder. After you find the volume, multiply the volume by the amount per cubic inches.
