Farmer Jim builds a new silo to store his grain. The silo is a cylinder, 7 m in diameter and 24 m tall, capped with a hemisphere that has the same diameter. Recall that the volume of a sphere is 4r a If these measurements are the interior measurements, what is the volume of the inside of his new silo? b. Farmer Jim measures his wheat crop in bushels. If a bushel is about 1.25 cubic feet, how many bushels can he fit in his new silo when he fills it completely?
