<human>:  A volcano erupts and spews ash into the sky. The ash cloud spreads out in a diameter eighteen times as far as the distance it shot up into the sky. If the ashes erupted three hundred feet into the sky, what was the radius of the ash cloud in feet?
<bot>: How far did the ash cloud spread out? ** The ash cloud spread out 300 * 18 = <<300*18=5400>>5400 feet in diameter.
What was the radius of the ash cloud? ** The radius is half the diameter, so the ash cloud had a radius of 5400 / 2 = <<5400/2=2700>>2700 feet.
