A grain silo has a cylindrical shape. Its diameter is 18ft. , and its height is 36ft. . What is the volume of grain that can be stored in the silo? (Use the value for 3.14 , and round to the nearest cubic foot. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.)
Volume of a cylinder = π x (radius)? x height In this question, radius = (diameter / 2) or (18 / 2) or 9 ft. The height is 36 ft. Volume = π x (9)? x 36 Volume = 3.14 x 81 x 36 Volume = 9156.24 cubic foot Hence, the volume of grain that can be stored in the silo is 9156 cubic foot (rounded up to nearest cubic foot) <-------- answer.
