Question

A soup can has diameter 6.6 cm.

The label on the can is 8.8 cm high.
There is a 1-cm overlap on the label.
What is the area of the label?

Answer 1

191.3 cm^3

Explanation:

Calculate the circumference and then add the 1 cm overlap:

C = pi*(6.6 cm) + 1 cm = 21.7 cm.

Next, multiply this C by the height, 8.8 cm: The total area is 21.7 cm times 8.8 cm,

or 191.3 cm^3 (answer)
