Answer:

"A is smaller"

Step-by-step explanation:

The full question is attached.

<u>Surface area of cylinder:</u>

The formula is  SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h

where r is the radius and h is the height

Here, radius would be 30 since balls have diameter 60 and radius is half of that.

Also height is the diameter of 4 balls line-by-line, so height is 60*4 = 240

Now, plugging into the formula, we get:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h\\SA=2\pi (30)^2 + 2\pi (30) (240)\\SA=50,868

<u>Surface Area of rectangular prism:</u>

The surface area of rectangular prism is the area of all the rectangular surfaces (6 of them).

Area of top and bottom = (60+60)*(60+60) * 2 = 120*120 * 2 = 28,800

Area of 2 sides = 2 * (60*120) = 14,400

Area of front and back = 2 * (60*120) = 14,400

Total Surface Area = 28,800 + 14,400 + 14,400 = 57,600

Thus, cylinder has smaller surface area.

Answer:

2827.433388 x 2 = 5654.866776

188.4955592 x 240 = 45238.93421

50893.80099

60 x 120 x 4 = 28800

120 x 120 x 2  = 28800

28800 + 28800 = 57600

'A is smaller'

I have put that into Mathswatch and this is the correct answer

I don't know if I did this right. 
There are 1097.6 pages in the book. I multiplied .35 by 56 and got 19.6. I multiplied 19.6 by 56 and got 1097.6. Therefore, there are 1097.6 pages in the book.
