Answer:

27.7 days

Explanation:

volume of a cylinder = nr^2h

n = 22/7

r = radius

the diameter is the straight line that passes through the centre of a circle and touches the two edges of the circle.

A radius is half of the diameter

radius = 8/2

(22/7) x (4^2) x 11 == 553.14 in^3

if it rains 20 cm^3 per day, the can would fill in : volume of can / amount of rain = 553.14/20 = 27.7 days
