Question

A cylinder is shown with a base diameter of 6 centimeters and a height of 8 centimeters. What is the minimum number of identical containers Rene would need to make 2,000 cm3 of ice? (Use π = 3.14.)

Answer 1

Answer:

Rene needs 9 of these identical cylinder.

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter d = 6 cm

height h = 8 cm

volume of this cylinder v = $\pi d^{2}h/4$

substituting, we have

v = (3.142 x $6^{2}$ x 8)/4

v = 226.224 cm^3

minimum number of identical containers Rene should use should be

n = 2,000/226.224 = 8.8

The minimum number must be a whole number, and must completely make this 2000 cm^3 volume of ice or more

answer will be 9
