Question

A cylindrical can containing pieces of fruit is filled to the hop with syrup before being sealed. The base of the can has an area of 75 ^2, and the height of the can is 10cm. If 110 cm^3 of syrup is needed to fill the can to the top, which of the following is closet to the total volume of the pieces of fruit in the can? 7.5 cm^3 185 cm^3 640 cm^3 750 cm^3

Answer 1

Area of the base= 75 cm^2

height = 10 cm

110 cm ^3 ok

Volume of the can = 75 * 10 = 750 cm^3

Volume of fruit = Volume of the can - volume of syrup

Substitution

Volume of fruit = 750 cm^3 - 110 cm^3

Result

Volume of fruit = 640 cm^3
