Acylindrical bin with a diameter of 15 feet 3 inches and a height of 24 feet 4 inches is used to hold wheat on the farm where you're interning. one cubic foot holds 0.804 bushels. about how many bushels of wheat can be stored?

Given

A cylindrical bin with a diameter of 15 feet 3 inches and a height of 24 feet 4 inches is used to hold wheat.

One cubic foot holds 0.804 bushels

Find out bushels of wheat can be stored.

To proof

Formula

where r is the radius and h represent the height.

As given in the question

diameter = 15 feet 3 inches

height = 24 feet 4 inches

First convert inches into feet

I inches = 0.083 feet

15 feet 3 inches = 15 + 3 × 0.083

                          =    15.25 feet

Diameter = 15.25 feet

24 feet 4 inches = 24  + 4 ×0.083

                           = 24.33 feet

Height = 24.33 feet

Radius = 7.63 feet

Put all the value in the above formula.

we get

Volume of the cylinder = 3.14× 7.63× 7.63× 24.33

                                      = 4447.55 foot³ ( approx)

As given

One cubic foot holds 0.804 bushels

Total bushels of wheat can be stored = 4447.55×0.804

                                                               = 3575.83 ( approx)

Total bhushels of wheat stored are  3575.83 ( approx).

Hence proved

i agree because i see the other persons thinking is clear
