Sam has a cylindrical storage container 7 inches tall with a radius of 5 inches. How much cat litter will fit in the container? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

The cylinder has a volume of 549.5 cubic inches which will fit in equivalent volume of a cat litter.

A cylinder is a storage container used to store substances.

Cat litter is filled into the cylinder.

To determine the amount of cat litter the cylinder can hold, we need to calculate the volume of the cylinder.

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Where,

π= pi

r=radius

h= height

Then,

π=22/7 or 3.14 (constant value)

r=5 inches

h=7 inches

Volume of a cylinder = 3.14 × (5)² × 7

= 3.14 × 25 × 7

= 549.5 cubic inches

Volume of the cylinder = 549.5 inches

That would be 549.5 cubic inches of cat litter (approximately).

Step-by-step explanation: The cylindrical storage container has a height of seven inches and a radius of five inches. To know how much cat litter would fill it requires us to calculate the volume of the container.

The volume of a cylinder is given as,

Volume = Pi x r^2 x h

Where r is the radius, h is the height and Pi shall be taken as 3.14

We can now substitute for the known values as follows;

Volume = 3.14 x 5^2 x 7

Volume = 3.14 x 25 x 7

Volume = 549.5

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the container would be filled with 549.5 cubic inches of cat litter.
