You can put this solution on YOUR website! The bucket is a frustum cone and the volume (V) is calculated
V = (pi*h)/3 * (R^2 + r^2 +Rr)
substituting with what we know
V = (3.14*18)/3 * (24^2 +16^2 +24*16)
V = 18.84 * 1216 = 22909.44 cubic centimeters
===============================================================
now we want to find the volume in litres
V = 22909.44 / 1000 = 22.9 litres
================================================================
note that there are a 1000 ml in a litre and a cubic-centimeter = a ml
