Answer:

The lateral surface area is
$68\pi\ units^(2)$

Explanation:

we know that

The lateral surface area of a cylinder (soup can) is equal to

$LA=2\pi rh$

we have

$r=3.4\ units$

$h=10\ units$

substitute

$LA=2\pi(3.4)(10)=68\pi\ units^(2)$ -----> exact value

$LA=68\pi=68(3.14)=213.5\ units^(2)$ ----> approximate value
