Question

A professional baker uses a chocolate mold to make decorations for cakes. One chocolate mold is in the shape of a cone and has a diameter of 2 cm and a height of 6 cm. What volume of chocolate, in cubic centimeters, is needed to make a solid chocolate cone? Use 3.14 for π

Answer 1

Volume of a cone: V = (1/3)πr^2h. Here r = 1 cm (diameter 2 cm) and h = 6 cm.

V = (1/3)·π·1^2·6 = 2π ≈ 2·3.14 = 6.28 cm³.
