Question

A can of chicken stock measures 3.5 inches in diameter and is 5 inches tall. What is the volume of the can? Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

48.08 cubic in

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of can=3.5 in

Radius of can=
`(3.5)/(2)` in

Length of can=5 in

We have to find the volume of can.

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

`\pi`=3.14

Substitute the values then we get

Volume of can=
`3.14* ((3.5)/(2))^2* 5`

Volume of can=
`48.08 in^3`

Hence, volume of can=48.08 cubic in

Answer 2

Volume of can, V = pi * r^2 * h
V = 3.14 * (3.5/2)^2 * 5
V = 3.14 * 1.75^2 * 5
V = 3.14 * 3.0625 * 5
V = 48.08125 inches^3
V = 48.08 inches^3
