5. A silo was constructed at a farm in the shape of a right circular cylinder. It was built with an

approximate volume of 842,411 cubic meters and a height of 85 meters. What was the length of the diameter

of the base, to the nearest meter?

    Answer: 112 meters

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

    Volume of a cylinder (V) : π x radius ² x height

    Replacing with the values given:

    842,411 = π x r ² x 85

    Solving for r:

    842,411 / (π x 85) = r²

    3,154.67 = r²

    √3,154.67 = r

    56.16 m = r

    Finally, we have to multiply the radius by 2 to obtain the diameter:

    56.16 x 2 = 112 meters
