I have the formula for the volume of a cone. 
V = 1/3 Bh

This applies for pyramids, as well.

wow that didn't load completely, hold on

jamierox4ev3r · Answer

$$V=\pi r^{2}\frac{ h }{ 3 }$$

anonymous · Answer

$$V = \frac{ 1 }{ 3}\pi \times r^2h$$ where h is height, r is radius.

$$V = \frac{ 1 }{ 3}\times 3.14 \times (\frac{ 12 }{ 2 })^2 \times 16 = 602.88 inc^3$$

this is the formula we're looking for

jamierox4ev3r · Answer

oh shoot, bora beat me to it lmao.

Basically, to use this formula, you take your diameter, and divide it by 2 to find the radius

jamierox4ev3r · Answer

and depending on how you round, you could get a different answer.
I got 603.19
But the two answers aren't super far apart. 

@SarahStyles do you understand how to find volume of a cone?

anonymous · Answer

Yes! Thank You @Jamierox4ev3r and @BoraSemiz :)

anonymous · Answer

I got the results back... The correct answer was 602.88.
But thanks for helping :)
