\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Where r is the radius of the base and h is the height.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The first thing you need to do is to find the radius. You are given the diameter which is twice the radius, so just divide by 2 giving you 30mm. However, you have one more step. The question asks for the volume in cubic centimeters, so you need to convert the 30 mm radius to centimeters. 30mm = 3cm.\r
