Answer:

The correct answer is

Explanation:

Snow cone holders are sold in sleeves of 50.

The cones have a slant height (l) of 5 inches and a radius (r) of 3 inches.

Surface area of each cone holder = π × r × l = π × 15 = 15π square inches.

Surface area of all 50 cones in the sleeve = 15π × 50 = 750π = 2357.143 square inches.

Thus 2357.143 square inches pf paper would be necessary for each sleeve each having 50 cone holders.
