You didn't bother to share the actual volume, so we can only deal with that quantity as a variable.

The formula for the volume of a cone is



Solving for :



we are given as 5, so , and you are told to use 3.14 for , so just plug in the values we know so far:



Once you know what value represents, plug that in and do the arithmetic.
