a circular slab 18 ft in diameter by 3 in. for a patio if the concrete
costs $40.00 per cubic yard?
:
A circular concrete slab is a cylinder. Vol =
in this cylinder:
r = = 9 ft
h = = .25 ft
:
Find the volume in cu/ft:
V =
V = 63.61725 cu/ft
:
Change to cubic yds; (1 cu/yd = 27 cu/ft) and multiply by $40:
Cost = * 40
Cost = $94.25
:
In practical terms, they may require you to buy 3 cu/yds, which is $120
