Question

You have a can that is in the shape of a cylinder. It has a volume of about 1,726 cubic centimeters. The height of the can is 22 centimeter. What is the approximate length of the radius? Use 3.14 for pi

Answer 1

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is

V = πr²h

Data:

V = 1726 cm³

h = 22 cm

Calculation:

1726 = 3.14 × r² × 22

1726 = 69.08r²

Divide each side by 69.08

24.99 = r²

Take the square root of each side

r = 4.999 cm ≈ 5 cm

The approximate radius of the cylinder is 5 cm.
