A cylinder shaped drum is used to store used motor oil. The drum has a height of 3 ft and a radius of 1.5 ft. How many cubic feet of oil does the drum hold? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. Enter your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth in the box.
The answer is 21.2 ft² To do this we need to calculate the volume of the cylinder shaped drum.The volume (V) of the cylinder with height h and radius r is:V = π r² h We have:π = 3.14r = 1.5 fth = 3 ft Therefore:V = π r² hV = 3.14 * (1.5 ft)² * 3 ftV = 21.2 ft² here you go
