Question:

math problem i have no clue how diamaters and stuff?

A grain silo has a cylindrical shape. Its diameter is 19ft , and its height is 47 . What is the volume of grain that can be stored in the silo? (Use the value 3.14 for , and round your answer to the nearest cubic foot. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.)how do u do this!

Answer:

first find the area of the cylindrical shape. 19*19*3.14 . multiply that by 47!!! voila
Volume of cylindrical silo = pi * [(diameter)^2/4] * (height) = 3.14 *[ (19)^2/4] * 47 = 13319 cubic feet
Answer: 13,319 CFT (Cubic feet) The formula for finding the volume of a cylinder is: Volume = Pi * R^2 * H In your instance it is: 3.14 * 9.5^2 * 47 = 13,319 CFT
