A farmer wants fill his silo with grain. How much grain will the farmer be able to fit? use 3.14 for pi.
height = 16ft and width = 10 ft
plz show work, i would like to put this in my notes!!
i don't think this is correct...
can someone else answer 💀✋

the bot showed its calculations. Just check to see whether they are right.
Hevyyy, you are correct to doubt the answer given by the bot
Assuming the silo has a cylindrical shape and by width of 10 ft they
meant the diameter,
volume = π(5^2)(h) ft^3
= appr 1256.6 ft^3
(btw, who uses 3.14 for π in 2023 ?? )
To find the volume of the silo, we need to multiply the height, width, and pi.
Given:
Height = 16 ft
Width = 10 ft
pi = 3.14
Volume = Height × Width × pi
Volume = 16 ft × 10 ft × 3.14
Now we can calculate the answer:
Volume = 502.4 ft³
Therefore, the farmer will be able to fit 502.4 cubic feet of grain in the silo.
The farmer will be able to fit a total of 804.8 cubic feet of grain in the silo.
To calculate this, we use the formula for the volume of a cylinder:
V = πr2h
where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height.
In this case, the radius is 5 ft (half of the width of 10 ft) and the height is 16 ft.
V = 3.14 x (5 ft)2 x 16 ft
V = 804.8 cubic feet
