Answer:
Volume of wheat = 147.26 m³ (check the explanation)
Explanation:
The question still lacks some details such as the size of the silo. We will go forward by assuming the size of the silo to aid our calculation. Silos are cylindrical storage structures that range from 3 - 27 m in diameter and 10 - 90 m in height. For the purpose of this question, let's assume that the size of the silo is 5 m (diameter) by 15 m (height).
Let's list out the parameters to be used:
diameter (D) = 5 m; r = D ÷ 2 ⇒ r = 5/2 = 2.5 m,
height (h) = 15 m
Volume of silo = πr²h = π * 2.5² * 15
V (silo) = 294.52 m³
The silo is half full ⇒ ½ * V
Volume of wheat stored is given by half of the silo volume, since the silo is half-full
V (wheat) = ½ * 298.52
V (wheat) = 147.26 m³
