    The volume of the part of silo filled with corn is 3391.2 cubic foot.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Diameter of the silo = 12ft.

    Radius = 6 ft.

    Height = 60ft.

    Volume = π (r x r) h

    = (3.14) (36) 60

    = 6782.4 cubic foot

    The corn is 50% filled. So,

    Volume of corn filled = (50/100) (6782.4)

    = 3391.2 cubic foot

    The volume of the part of silo filled with corn is 3391.2 cubic foot.
