Find the volume of the candle using the formula for volume of a cylinder:
V = PI x r^2 x h = 3.14 x 3.4^2 x 6 = 217.79 cubic cm. Round to 217.8
Find the volume of the block: V = l x w x h = 15 x 12 x 18 = 3,240 cubic cm.
Now divide the volume of the block by the volume of a candle:
3240 / 217.8 = 14.88
Round to the nearest tenth = 14.9 candles.
Answer:
2.25 feet
31.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the person travels 9 feet every 4 seconds, it means that in one second, the distance walked
= 9/4
= 2.25 feet
If the person walks 2.25 feet in a second then in 14 seconds, the distance walked
= 2.25*14/1
= 31.5 feet
