Answer 1

To find the surface area of the can, we need to find the area of the top and bottom circles, as well as the lateral surface area.

The formula to find the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where r is the radius.

The radius of the can is half of the diameter, so r = 6 inches / 2 = 3 inches.

The area of the top and bottom circles is 3.14 × (3 inches)^2 = 28.26 square inches.

The formula to find the lateral surface area of a cylinder is A = 2πrh, where r is the radius and h is the height.

The lateral surface area of the can is 2 × 3.14 × 3 inches × 4 inches = 75.36 square inches.

Adding the area of the top and bottom circles to the lateral surface area, we get 28.26 square inches + 75.36 square inches = 103.62 square inches.

Therefore, 103.62 square inches of paper will be needed for the label on the outside of the can.
