What is the approximate volume of a cylinder with a height of 3 ft and a radius of 4 ft? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. Express your answer in hundredths. ??? ft^3

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

@Mehek14 how would I do this?

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Thanks but I want to learn how to do it ^-^

Mehek (mehek14):

for this you multiply \(\Large{πr^2h}\) where π is 3.14, r is 4 and h is 3

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Wait oh so I would do what @Siri15 has in that link?

Mehek (mehek14):

no she mixed up the r and h

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Ohh okay

Mehek (mehek14):

but yea you multiply like that

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

So would it be 4^2 * 3?

Mehek (mehek14):

\(3.14 * 4^2 * 3\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops lol sorry for that mistake

Mehek (mehek14):

they don't give you π in the answer so you have to multiply that as well

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Ohhh okay thanks!

Mehek (mehek14):

yw \(\ddot\smile\)

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

So it'd be 150.72 ^-^

Mehek (mehek14):

yup
