Question

a can of juice is 5.5 inches high and its base has a diameter or 6 inches what is the volume of the can? round to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

According to the problem, the can of juice has the form of a cylinder, so we have to use the following formula

`V=\pi(r)^2h`

Where the radius is half the diameter, r = 3 in, h = 5.5 in, and pi = 3.14. Replacing these values, we have

`V=3.14\cdot(3in)^2\cdot5.5in=155.43in^3`

Hence, the volume of the can is 155.43 cubic inches.
