Answer:

One Rectangular Pan

Explanation:

Part C cannot be answered since the dimensions of the pool are not given. Please check the question.

The cake pans may be compared by calculating the volume of each shape:

Rectangular pan: Volume = Length x Width x Height

Volume Rectangle = (13")*(9")*(2") = 234 in^3

Round pan: Volume =
\pi r^(2) h

Volume Round = (3.14)*(4")^2(2") = 100.5 in^3

Two round pans will hold 2*(100.5 in^3) or 201 in^3 of batter

One rectangular pan holds 234 in^3.

Go with the rectangular pan if you want more cake.
