calculations.
First, we need to find the radius of the cylinder. The radius is half the diameter, so:
radius = 15 feet / 2 = 7.5 feet
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Now plug in the values we have:
V = 3.14 x (7.5)^2 x 40
V = 3.14 x 56.25 x 40
V = 3.14 x 2250
V = 7065 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of corn the farmer can store in the silo is 7065 cubic feet.
A farmer wants to know how much corn he is going to sell at the end of the season. He stores the corn in a silo, which is in the shape of a right circular cylinder. If the height is 40 feet, and the diameter is 15 feet, what is the volume? Use 3.14 for
