Question

Two containers designed to hold water are side by side, both in the shape of a cylinder. Container A has a radius of 4 feet and a height of 17 feet. Container B has a radius of 6 feet and a height of 11 feet. Container A is full of water and the water is pumped into Container B until Container A is empty.

To the nearest tenth, what is the percent of Container B that is full after the pumping is complete?

Answer 1

Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of container A

50.27 * 17 = 854.6cm^3

Volume of container B

113.1 * 11 = 1244.1 cm^3

percent of Container B that is full after the pumping is complete

=

$\frac{854.6}{1244.1} \times 100$

= 68.69%
