Question
NO LINKS
Two containers designed to hold water are side by side, both in the shape of a cylinder. Container A has a radius of 9 feet and a height of 10 feet. Container B has a radius of 5 feet and a height of 20 feet. Container A is full of water and the water is pumped into Container B until Containter B is completely full.
To the nearest tenth, what is the percent of Container A that is empty after the pumping is complete?

Answer:
61.74%
Step-by-step explanation
Find the vol of container one: Volume = Pi(r^2)(height) = 3.14159*81*10 = 2544.69 cu.ft.
Find the vol of container two: Pi(r^2)(height) = 1570.79 cu.ft.
Now the % of container A that is empty is
(1 – ((Volume A – Volume B)/Volume A))*100% = 61.73%
