Question:

Surface area of a sphere?

Can somebody help with this question? I think it's trick question and I got but help and make sure:A farmer wishes to fill up his silo with corn. Assume his silo is cylinder with circumcision 12pie feet and height 10 yards (that is a BIG circumcision). Corn is assumed as sphere with circumcision 1pie inchers. How much corn can farmer Bob fit into his silo?I said 30 - since the silo is being filled with corn pies, and everybody knows that a row of corn has 30 colonels, that has to be true.

Answer:

well i think you might've made a mistake. you might want to go back and look at all your units and make them into one thing like all inches and stuff...cuz it sounds like it might be more than 30..
I am an old farm boy and I have never heard of a circumcised silo.
