Question

A can of tomatoes has a 4 in. diameter and is 4.5 in. high. What is the area of the paper label that goes around the can

Answer 1

Answer:

56.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the paper around the can is equal the circumference of the base.

Circumference = πd

Circumference = 3.14 * 4

Circumference = 12.56

And since the height is 4.5 (which is also the width of the paper if you unwrap it), Multiply the circumference by 4.5.

12.56 * 4.5

= 56.52
