Question

How many sweets can you fit in a cylinder with diameter 3 cm and height 10 cm?

Answer 1

Well, we need the information of the dimensions and the volume of the sweets.

Because the volume of the cylinder is


`\pi r^(2)h`

r, radius, is half of the diameter, so 3/2=1.5
h is height
so the volume is

`\pi r^(2)`=
`\pi 1.5^(2) *10`=70.65

(
`\pi=3.14`, approximately)

now, let's say that each sweet has a volume of 1, we can then fit in 70 sweets. But since you forgot to give the dimentions or volume of the sweets, all i can say is: you need to divide 70.65 by the volume of the sweets!
