A trash can in the shape of a cylinder has a radius of 29 cm and a height of 36 cm. Which of the following is closest to the volume of the trash can?
A. 13,113 cm^3
B. 380,267 cm^3
C. 6,556 cm^3
D. 95,067 cm^3
To calculate the volume of a cylinder, you use the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
First, calculate the volume of the trash can:
V = π(29 cm)^2(36 cm)
V = π(841 cm^2)(36 cm)
V = 30276π cm^3
V ≈ 95,067 cm^3
Therefore, the closest option is:
D. 95,067 cm^3
