Q:

A cylindrical glass with a radius of 5 cm and a height of 20 cm is balf full of milk. How many milliliters of milk are in the glass? (1 cm3 1 ml) Disregard the thickness of the glass when finding your answer

Accepted Solution

A:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Find capacity of the glass :
--------------------------------------------------------------
Volume of the glass = πr²h 
Volume of the glass = π(5)²(2) 
Volume of the glass = 157.08cm³

--------------------------------------------------------------
Find the volume of the milk :
 --------------------------------------------------------------
If the glass is half full, 
Volume of the milk = 177.08 ÷ 2
Volume of the milk = 78.54 cm³

--------------------------------------------------------------
Convert cm³ to ml :
--------------------------------------------------------------
78.54cm³ = 78.54 ml

--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: There is 78.54 ml of milk in the glass.
