Tanya stores her coins in a cylindrical container. The container has a diameter of 8 inches and a height of 15 inches. Which is the volume of Tanya's container to the nearest cubic inch?

Answer 1

The radius of the cylinder is half of the diameter, so it is 4 inches.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height.

Plugging in the values, we get:

V = π(4 inches)^2(15 inches) ≈ 753.98 cubic inches

Rounding to the nearest cubic inch, Tanya's container has a volume of 754 cubic inches.
