Option C. $3.1\ in^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the volume of ice cream

we know that

The volume of the cone is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

In this problem we have

$r=2/2=1\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$h=5\ in$

substitute

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi (1^{2})(5)=5.2\ in^{3}$

Step 2

Find the volume of chocolate ice cream in the cone

Let

x------> volume of vanilla ice cream

y------> volume of chocolate ice cream

we know that

$\frac{x}{y} =\frac{2}{3}$

$x=\frac{2}{3}y$ -------> equation A

x+y=5.2 -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$\frac{2}{3}y+y=5.2$

$\frac{5}{3}y=5.2$

$y=5.2*3/5=3.1\ in^{3}$
