Question

Healthy Grains is planning a new design for its best-selling oatmeal. It has four containers to choose from. It costs the company $0.03 per cubic inch of oatmeal to fill a container. The company does not want the new container to cost more than $4.00 to fill. Which container should the company use? Use 3.14 for Pi.
Container A Container B

A cylinder with height 7 inches and diameter 5 inches. A cylinder with height 10 inches and B = 12.57 inches squared.


Container C Container D

Answer 1

The cylinder the company should use is container A.

Which container should be used?
The total cost of the cylinders = cost per cubic each x volume of the cylinder

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Or base area x height

Where:

• r = radius = diameter / 2
• h = height

Cost of container A = $0.03 x (3.14 x 7 x (5/2)²) = $4.12

Cost of container B = $0.03 x 10 x 12.57 = $3.77

Cost of container C = = $0.03 x (3.14 x 5.5  x 4²) = 8.29

Cost of container D = $0.03 x (3.14 x 6  x 3²) = $5.09

Here is the complete information about the rest of the containers:
