Recall the formula for volume of a cone:  V = (1/3)(base)(height).

Here the volume is V = 62.8 cu in. = (1/3)(pi* r^2)(15 in)
              
                   62.8 cu in      
or, r^2 = --------------------------  = 4 in^2
                (1/3)(3.14)(15 in)

Then the radius of the base is sqrt(4 in^2) = 2 in.
