hello

to solve this problem, we need to identify the shape of the soup can first since soup is a liquid and carries the shape of whatever container its in.

volume of a cylinder is given as


\begin{gathered} V=\pi r^2h \\ \pi=3.142 \\ r=\text{radius} \\ h=\text{height} \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} v=\text{ ?} \\ r=4.3\operatorname{cm} \\ h=11.6\operatorname{cm} \\ \pi=3.142 \\ v=\pi r^2h \\ v=3.142*4.3^2*11.6 \\ v=673.9\operatorname{cm}^3 \end{gathered}

from the calculations above, the volume of the soup is equal to 673.9cm^3 which corresponds with option D
