Answer:

I would use the lid value = 3391.2

Explanation:

Do you need a lid? I'll add it on last.

Base

Area = 3.14 * r*r

r = 12

Area = 3.14 * 12*12

Area = 452.16 square inches.

The body of the can

Area of can body = 2*pi*r * h

pi = 3.14

r = 12

h = 33 inches

Area = 2*3.14 * 12 * 33

Area = 2486.88 square inches

Total are so far = 2486.88 + 452.16 = 2939.4

If you need a lid as well, then just add 452.16 more = 3391.2
