First, we need to calculate the radius of the cylinder:
Radius = diameter / 2
Radius = 15 feet / 2
Radius = 7.5 feet
Next, we can calculate the volume of the cylinder using the formula for the volume of a cylinder:
Volume = π x (radius)^2 x height
Volume = 3.14 x (7.5 feet)^2 x 40 feet
Volume = 3.14 x 56.25 feet^2 x 40 feet
Volume = 3.14 x 2250 feet^3
Volume = 7065 feet^3
Therefore, the volume of the silo is 7065 cubic feet.
Radius = diameter / 2
