    The volume of oil in a barrel is 113.04ft³

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To calculate the volume of a cylinder we have to use the following formula:

    6in = 0.5ft

    v = volume

    h = height = 4.5ft - 0.5in = 4ft

    π = 3.14

    r = radius = 6ft / 2 = 3ft

    v = (π * r²) * h

    we replace the unknowns with the values we know

    v = (3.14 * (3ft) ²) * 4ft

    v = (3.14 * 9ft²) * 4ft

    v = 28.26ft² * 4ft

    v = 113.04ft³

    The volume of oil in a barrel is 113.04ft³
