Tim is an elementary school art teacher. His students are sculpting a replica of a shark out of clay. Tim has given them one block of clay to make 20 conical shark teeth for the sculpture. The block contains 81 cm3 of clay. If each tooth is solid and has a 2.5 cm base diameter, what is the maximum height each tooth can be? Assume that the students use all the clay.

Question

Vocaloid · Answer

Total volume/number of shark teeth = total volume of each tooth

Volume of one tooth/(pi * r^2) = height of each tooth

They give you the diameter so you will have to divide diameter/2 to get r
