Question:

A Cylindrical shaped grain silo is approximately 50 feet high with a diameter of 26ft. Which of the following?

is the approximate volume?A: 27,000ft squared threeB: 54,000ft squared threeC:81,000ft squared threeD: 100,000ft squared three? help please thank you(:

Answer:

the area of the cylinder = pi*r squared, where r= radius or half the diameter thus area of cylinder = 13 x 13 x 3.14159 area = 530.93 sq ft volume = area of cylinder x height volume = 530.93 x 50 = 26,546 cubic feet or answer A, 27,000 cubic feet
