Question

A can of drink is in the shape of a cylinder. The can has a radius of 4cm and a height of 15cm. Calculate the volume of the cylinder. You must include the correct units. Give your answer correct to 2 decimal places

Answer 1

`V \beta = \pi r^(2) h \\ = \pi 4^(2) * 15 \\ = 240 \pi \\ = 753.6 cm^(3)(approx.)`

Answer 2

The volume of a cylinder is

Volume = π (radius)² (length or height)

Volume = π (4 cm)² (15 cm) = 240 π cm³ = 753.98 cm³
