The volume of the cone-shaped pile of sand is 84 cubic inches

The volume of a cone is equal to one-third of the product of π, the square of the radius, and its height.

Volume = [tex]\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(r^{2})(h)[/tex] ..........................................(1)

(where r is the radius of the cone and h is the height)

Now, put all the values in equation 1,

Volume = [tex]\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(4^{2})(5)[/tex] = 83.7333 ≈ 84 cubic inches
