Hello! A can is the shape of a cylinder. The formula for the volume of a cylinder is this: pi * r^2 * h. The radius is 1/2 of the diameter. Half of 13.6 is 6.8. 6.8^2 is 46.24. 46.24 * 15 is 693.6. Now, we can multiply by pi as 3.14. 693.6 * 3.14 is 2,177.904 or 2,177.9 when rounded to the nearest tenth. The volume of the cam is approximately 2,177.9 cubed centimeters.
