Question

Ophelia keeps flour in a cylindrical canister. The capacity of the full canister is 75.36 in^3..When it is filled halfway the flour reaches a height of 3 in. What is the diameter of the canister?

Answer 1

Answer:

4 (rounded to the nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

total height = 3 x 2 = 6

Volume = radius^2 * pi * height

75.36= radius^2 * pi * 6

75.36/pi = radius^2 * 6  

23,987833 = radius^2 * 6

23,987833/6 = radius^2

3,997972 = radius^2

radius = 1,999493

diameter = radius x 2 = 1,999493 x 2 = 3,998986
