To find the volume of the larger stockpot, you will need to find the radius using proportional reasoning.
Use the following proportion to solve for the radius of the large stockpot.
height 10 in 16 in
radius 2.5 in x in.
10x = 2.5 x 16
10x = 40
x = 4 in.
The radius of the larger stockpot is 4 in.
V = pi x r^2 x h
3.14 x 4^2 x 16
V = 803.84 cubic inches
The volume of the larger stockpot is approximately 803.84 cubic inches.
