What volume of shaved ice is needed to fill a snow cone cup that has a height of 3 inches and a radius of 2 inches?
Data:
\(V (volume) = ?\)
\(\pi = 3.14\)
\(r (radius) = 2in\)
\(h (height) = 3 in\)
Formula:
\(V = \frac{\pi*r^2*h}{3}\)
Solving:
\(V = \frac{\pi*r^2*h}{3}\)
\(V = \frac{3.14*2^2*3}{3}\)
\(V = \frac{3.14*4*3}{3}\)
\(V = \frac{37.68}{3}\)
\(\boxed{V = 12.56in^3} or \boxed{V\approx205.8cm^3}\)
Answer:
The volume is 12.56 Cubic inches
\(\boxed{\boxed{V = 12.56in^3}}\)
