Question

Milk Glass A has a diameter of 3.5 inches and a height of 4 inches . Glass B has a radious of 1.5 inches and a height of 5 inches. Which glass can hold more milk

Answer 1

Milk Glass A can hold more milk.

Explanation:

This problem mostly relies on the diameter of the milk glass.

To solve the problem, we'll find the volume of each glass as though it were a cylinder.

First, we start with the area of the base of each cylinder.

Using the formula
`\pi r^(2)`, we can find the area of each base.

Note that r represents radius, which is half of the diameter, d.

The area of the base on Milk Glass A can be found with:
`\pi 1.75^2` which equals 9.62 inches squared.

The area of the base on Milk Glass B can be found with:
`\pi 0.75^2` which equals 1.77 inches squared.

Now that we have the area of each base, we just multiple the area by the height to get the full volume.

The volume of Milk Glass A can be found by multiplying
`9.62*4` which equals 38.48 cubic inches.

The volume of Milk Glass B can be found by multiplying
`1.77 *5` which equals 8.85 cubic inches.

Therefore, the larger answer of 38.48 cubic inches means Milk Glass A can hold more milk.
