Two containers designed to hold water are side by side, both in the shape of a cylinder. Container A has a diameter of 14 feet and a height of 10 feet. Container B has a diameter of 10 feet and a height of 19 feet. Container A is full of water and the water is pumped into Container B until Conainter B is completely full. After the pumping is complete, what is the volume of the empty space inside Container A, to the nearest tenth of a cubic foot?

Answer:

Volume of Cylinder A is                          pi times the area of the base times the height

                                                             π r2 h = (3.1416)(4)(4)(15) = 753.98 ft3

Volume of Cylinder B is likewise             pi times the area of the base times the height

                                                             π r2 h = (3.1416)(6)(6)(7)   = 791.68 ft3

After pumping all of Cyl A into Cyl B

there will remain empty space in B         791.68 – 753.98 = 37.7 ft3  

The percentage this empty space is

of the entire volume is                            37.7 / 791.68 = 0.0476 which is 4.8% when rounded to the nearest tenth
