Since 17+7 = 24, the numbers do not make sense.
v = (πr^2)(2πR)
Maybe the tire is not circular in its cross-section.
In any case, figure the area of the cross-section, then multiply that by (r+R)/2
see the Theorem of Pappus to see why.
google volume of torus for further discussions
(which you could have done on your own ...)
So Im being asked to find volume of a tire given two diameters 1 for the outer circle of the tire and 1 for the inner circle then the width of the tire
Diameter of outer circle = 25 inches
Diameter of inner circle 17 inches
Width of tire = 7 inch
I just need to get the formula, the answer should be around 1847.25 cubic inches
