Four Circular wheat silo's are arranged so that each circular silo touches two other silo's at exactly one point. (So basically the Silo's are arranged in 2 rows of 2)
When the silo's are filled, the grain overflows to fill the space in between all four Silos.
The radius of each Silo is 2 meters, & the height is 10 meters.
What would be the the total volume of the four Silos AND the space enclosed in between them?
Could you please explain and show the steps taken to solve this problem. Much appreciated.
Thanks

-
radius = 2 m
diameter = 4 m,
when lay side by side they formed a 4 by 4 square.
hence volume is 4 x 4 x 10 (height)
