A cylindrical container is filling up with water. The container is 18 ft tall with a diameter of 4.5 ft. How much water will fit in the container if it is filled to the brim?

Explanation

To compute for the volume of the cylindrical tank, use the formula:
Volume = Area of a circle x Height of the cylinder
\(=\pi(\text { diameter })^{2} / 4 \times \text { height }=\pi(\text { diameter })^{2}(\text { height }) / 4\)
\(= 3.14{(4.5)^2} \times 18/4 = 3.14 (4.5)(4.5)(4.5)\)
Volume = 286.13 cubic feet
