Question

The picture below shows a container that Sue uses to freeze water:

What is the minimum number of identical containers that Sue would need to make 2,000 cm3 of ice? (Use π = 3.14.)

Answer 1

27

Explanation:

I just took the test :)

Answer 2

The number of identical containers are 27

Explanation:

The picture below shows a container that Sue uses to freeze water.

We need to make 2000 cm³ of ice using small identical container.

Volume of cylinder
`=\pi r^2 h`

Where,

r = radius of cylinder (r=2 cm)

h = height of cylinder ( h=6 cm)

Volume of small cylinder
`=\pi (2)^2\cdot 6 = 75.39\text{ cm}^3`

We need to find number of small cylinder.

`\text{Number pf small cylinder }=\frac{\text{Volume of ice}}{\text{Volume of each cylinder}}`

`\text{Number pf small cylinder }=(2000)/(75.39)\approx 27`

Hence, The number of identical containers are 27
