Find the volume in cubic inches of a cylinder with a diameter of 16 inches and a height of 7 inches use 3.144 pi round your answer to the nearest hundredth
To find the volume of a cylinder, we use the formula:
Volume = π x (radius^2) x height
Given that the diameter is 16 inches, we can find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2:
Radius = diameter / 2 = 16 inches / 2 = 8 inches
Using the given value for pi (3.144), we can substitute the values into the formula and calculate the volume:
Volume = 3.144 x (8 inches)^2 x 7 inches
= 3.144 x (64 inches^2) x 7 inches
= 3.144 x (4096 inches) x 7 inches
= 87931.52 cubic inches
Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 87931.52 cubic inches.
