Question

A soup can has a diameter of 8 cm and a height of 12 cm. What is the volume of the soup can?

Answer 1

Answer: 602.88 cm

Explanation:

Formula for cylinder is V=
`\pi*r^(2)*h`

So it would be 3.14*4^2*12

I might be wrong though

That is also if you use 3.14 as PI

Answer 2

V =192 pi or approximately 602.88 cm^3

Explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by

V = pi r^2 h where r is the radius and h is the height

We need to determine the radius

r = d/2 = 8/2 =4

V = pi (4)^2 *12

V = pi *16*12

V =192 pi

We can approximate pi by 3.14

V = 192* 3.14

V =602.88 cm^3
