a cylindrical container with 6 meters diameter and a height of 8 meters is filled to capacity with water . if the water is then used to fill several smaller cylinders ( 2 meters radius and 5 meters height ) , how many smaller cylinders can be filled to capacity before the larger cylinder becomes empty ?
calculate the volume of the larger cylinder and divide it by the volume of the smaller cylinder . volume of cylinder = π r 2 h larger cylinder volume = 226.19 smaller cylinder volume = 62.83 therefore the number of smaller cylinders can be filled to capacity = 226.19 / 62.83 = 3.6 answer is c only 3 smaller cylinders can be filled to capacity .
subtract(divide(volume_cylinder(divide(6, const_2), 8), volume_cylinder(2, 5)), divide(add(const_4, const_2), const_10))
