Question

a cylindrical can of juice has a height of 5 inches and a radius of 1.25 inches. Which is closest to the total volume, in cubic inches, of the can?

Answer 1

$\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\ V=\pi r^2 h\quad \begin{cases} r=radius\\ h=height\\ ------\\ r=1.25\\ h=5 \end{cases}\implies V=\pi \cdot 1.25^2\cdot 5$

Answer 2

Answer:

Volume of cylindrical can =

$24.5\text{ cubic inches}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Height of cylindrical can = 5 inches

Radius of cylindrical can =  1.25 inches

Volume of cylindrical can =

$\pi r^2 h$

where r is the radius of cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder.

Putting the values, we get:

Volume =

$(3.14) (1.25)^2 (5) = 24.53125\text{ cubic inches} \approx 24.5\text{ cubic inches}$
