Amount of ice-cream in the cone = 6.3 in³

Solution:

Given data:

Diameter of the cone = 2 in

Radius of the cone = 2 ÷ 2 = 1 in

Height of the cone = 6 in

The value of π = 3.14

Volume of the cone =
$(1)/(3) \pi r^2 h$

$=(1)/(3)* 3.14* 1^2* 6

= 6.3

Volume of the cone = 6.3 in³

Amount of ice-cream in the cone = 6.3 in³
