ice cream is filled to the brim in a cylindrical container of radius 20 cm and height 60cm.
how many cones of radius 3 cm and height 10 cm are needed to hold this ice cream?
:
Find the volume of ice cream in the cylindrical container
V+=+pi%2A20%5E2%2A60
V = 75398.224 cu/cm
:
Find the volume of the cone
V+=+pi%2A3%5E2%2A10
V = 282.743 cu/cm
:
75398.224%2F282.743 = 266.67 cones (filled only to the brim of the cone)
