The volume of a cylinder can be calculated by the formula:
V = πr^2h
Where:
V = Volume
r = radius
h = height
Given that there are 20 cans with a total combined volume of 12,057.6 inches^3, we can set up the equation:
20 * π * 4^2 * h = 12,057.6
80 * π * h = 12,057.6
h = 12,057.6 / (80 * π)
h ≈ 4.78 inches
Therefore, the height of 1 can of tomato sauce is approximately 4.78 inches.
Michealla has 20 cans of tomato sauce with a combined volume of 12,057.6 inches3 . If each can has a radius of 4 inches, find the height of 1 can. Use 3.14 for π .
