To find the volume of a cylinder, we use the formula V = πr^2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height.
Given that the radius (r) of the can is 2.1 in. and the height (h) is 6.2 in., we can substitute these values into the formula and calculate the volume:
V = 3.14 × (2.1 in.)^2 × 6.2 in.
= 3.14 × 4.41 in^2 × 6.2 in.
= 86.754 in^3
Therefore, the volume of the can is approximately 86.8 cubic inches when rounded to the nearest tenth.
