A stainless steel pipe is used as a vent over a restaurant stove. The pipe is 6 feet long and its diameter is 12 inches. The pipe is open at both ends. To the nearest whole number, how many square feet of steel is the outer surface of the pipe?

Respuesta :

Answer: 18 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, first we need to find the circumference because that is the outside of the pipe.

Circumference = 2 x Pi x Radius

Radius is half of diameter.

So we plug in all the values in to the formula.

2 x Pi x 6 inches = Circumference

12Pi = 37.69911184 inches

37 inches to feet = about 3 feet.

3 x 6 = 18 feet.
