.***Pictured here is a grain silo on a farm. If it can be filled to the very top with corn, about how much corn can this silo hold?* ~picture in comments~

total volume of corn = volume of the cylinder + vol. of cone = pi r^2 h + (1/3) pi r^2 H where r = radius of circular part of cylinder, h = height of cylinder and H = height of cone

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

can you plug in these values (using numbers in diagram) and do the calculation?

i'll start you off: r = half of 20 = 10 ft
