An oil tanker aground on a reef is forming a circular oil slick about 0.1 foot thick

Question:

An oil tanker aground on a reef is forming a circular oil slick about 0.1 foot thick (see the figure). To estimate the rate dV/dt (in cubic feet per minute) at which the oil is leaking from the tanker, it was found that the radius of the slick was increasing at 0.32 foot per minute (dR/dt = 0.32) when the radius R was 500 feet. Find dV/dt.
