You measure a foam roller in the shape of a cylinder. The foam roller has a diameter of 5.9375 inches and a height of 53.5 inches. About how many cubic inches of foam were used to make the roller?

Sagot :

Answer:

Volume V ≈ 1481.3269 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume V of a cylinder is given by the formula

V = πr²h  where r = radius of the base of the cylinder and h the height

Here we are given the diameter, d = 5.9375 inches

Radius r = d/2 = 5.9375/2 = 2.96875 in

Height h = 53.5 in

V = π x 2.9685² x 53.5 ≈ 1481.3269 cubic inches

Answer V ≈ 1481.3269 cubic inches
