Question 1185427

We compute first the volume:

{{{V=(pi*h/3)*(R^2+r^2+rR)}}}, where {{{h=18cm}}} is the height, {{{R=24/2=12cm }}}is the top radius, {{{r=16/2=8cm}}} is the bottom radius.

We get: 

{{{V=(pi*18/3)(12^2+8^2+12*8)}}}

{{{V=(18pi/3)(144+64+96) }}}

{{{V=(18pi/3)*304}}}

{{{V=5730.265cm^3}}}

the capacity in liters: convert  {{{cm^3}}} to liters

{{{1cm^3 = 0.001liters}}}

{{{V=5730.265*0.001liters}}}

{{{V=5.73liters}}}
