A paper cup designed to hold popcorn is in the shape of a cone. the diameter of the cup is 12 centimeters and the height is 16 centimeters. what is the volume of popcorn the cup could hold? use 3.14 for pi.

The answer is 602.88, I just took this test.

the cup is in the shape of a cone

to find the volume of popcorn it can hold we have to know how to find the volume of a cone

formula for volume of a cone is

Volume = πr²h/3

π = 3.14

radius = diameter / 2 = 12/2 = 6 cm

h = 16 cm

substituting the values in the equation

V = 3.14 x (6 cm) ² x 16 cm / 3 = 602.9 cm³

answer is 602.9 cm³
