What is the total volume of grains that can be stored in the silo? 44π ft3 24π ft3 52π ft3 176π ft3

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Volume of a Cylinder = PI * r² * height Volume of a Cylinder = PI * 2² * 10 Volume of a cone = (PI * r² * height) / 3 Volume of a cone = (PI * 2² * 3) / 3 Add the cylinder volume and the cone volume together and you'll have your answer.

138

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Yes, it is 138 but it seems they want the answer in terms of PI. So, I'd say divide the answer by PI and see what you get.
