You have an ice cream scoop with a 2-inch diameter. You have an ice cream cone with a 2-inch diameter and a height of 5 inches. If you place one scoop of ice cream on the cone and let the ice cream melt, will it spill over the cone?

Since the volume of the cone is bigger than the volume of the scoop, it won't spill.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate if the ice cream will spill we will need to calculate the volume on the ice cream scoop and the volume of the cone. If the volume of the scoop is bigger than the cone it will spill.

volume scoop = (4/3)*pi*r³ = (4/3)*pi*(2/2)³ = 4.1888 in³

volume cone = (pi*r²*h)/3 = [pi*(2/2)²*5]/3 = 5.236 in³

Since the volume of the cone is bigger than the volume of the scoop, it won't spill.
