Answer:

The correct answers is D

D) 360 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the Area of the base of the can is given by

A = 45 inch²

Initial height of the can = 12 inches

Fraction of height cut off = 1/3

Calculate the final height after cutting off:

Find 1/3 of 12 inches:

$\frac{1}{3}\cdot12=4$

Subtract the answer from 12 to get final height:

Final height = 12- 4 = 8 inches

Can is a form of cylinder, so:

Volume = (Area)(height)

$V=45\cdot8\\V=360inch^3$
