The volume of the bag will be found by multiplying the length times the width times the height. This would be 5.5 x 3 x 8. The volume of the bag is 20.9 cubic inches. The volume of the candle would be found by using the formula for finding volume of a cylinder. V =pi(approximately 3.14) x r^2 x h, where r is the radius( half the diameter) and h is the height. V = 3.14 x 1.25 x 1.25 x 6. The volume of the cylinder would be 29.4 cubic inches.
