    Given:

    Cone-shaped pizza with a height of 5 inches and diameter of 3 inches.

    To get the cubic inches of fillings that the cone can hold, we need to solve for its volume.

    Volume of a cone = π r² h/3

    π = 3.14

    r = d/2 = 3inches/2 = 1.5 inches

    V = 3.14 * (1.5) ² * 5/3

    V = 3.14 * 2.25 in² * 1.67 in

    V = 11.798 or 11.80 in³

    The cone can hold 11.80 cubic inches of fillings.
