You own a bakery which specializes in custom orders. A customer requests to have a three-tiered cake made. Requirements are as follows:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Each tier is 15 cm high;
\n" ); document.write( " The bottom tier is a cylinder with a diameter of 45 cm;
\n" ); document.write( " The middle tier is a square–based prism. It must be positioned so that its corners touch the circumference of the bottom tier;
\n" ); document.write( " The top tier is another cylinder inscribed in the middle tier.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You know that 250 mL of raw batter will produce 625 mL of cake. How much raw batter is required for this cake? Note: 1 mL = 1 cm3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thanks so much :)
\n" ); document.write( "

Volume of bottom tier (cylinder): 
\n" );
document.write( "Volume of middle tier (square prism): 
\n" );
document.write( "Volume of top tier (cylinder): 
\n" );
document.write( "Volume of cake: \r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "Since 250 mL of raw butter will produce 625 mL of cake, and with amount of raw butter needed, being B, we get: 
\n" );
document.write( " ------- Cross-multiplying
\n" );
document.write( "B, or amount of raw butter needed =  \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
