Suppose you harvested a large crop of grain this year. The grain is now in a pile and takes upan area of 50 m2 and is 2 m high. You have a silo that has an area of 15 m2 that is 3 m high.Will all of the grain fit in this silo? If not, how much of the grain will remain outside of the silo?Show your work.
You have to see if volumes match. Pile volume == volume of grain = 50x2 = 100m3 Silo volume = 15x3 = 75 m3 The grain won't fit in the silo; outside you would be left 25m3 of grain.
