Answer: 25.12cm³
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the volume of the small cone shaped cups of water which will be:
= 1/3πr²h
where,
π = 3.14
r = 3cm
h = 8cm
Volume = 1/3πr²h
= 1/3 × 3.14 × 3² × 8
= 1/3 × 3.14 × 9 × 8
= 75.36cm³
Since Abigail sloshes 2/3 of the water out of a cup before she gets to drink any, this means that there'll be (1 - 2/3) = 1/3 of the water remaining in Abigail‘s cup. Therefore, the volume of the water remaining in Abigail‘s cup will be:
= 1/3 × 75.36
= 25.12cm³
