Aran moved a cone-shaped pile of sand that had a height of 6 ft and a radius of 3 ft. He used all of the sand to fill a cylindrical pit with a radius of 6 ft.

How high did the sand reach in the pit?

Don't tag so many times..that's against the Code of Conduct.

igreen · Answer

Find the volume of the sand.

V = 1/3 * pi * r^2 * h

V = 1/3 * 3.14 * 3^2 * 6

Simplify

Can you do that? @thebro55

igreen · Answer

Yes, now use the formula for the volume of a cylinder to find the height

V = pi * r^2 * h

56.52 = 3.14 * 6^2 * h

Simplify 3.14 * 6^2
