To determine which can has a greater volume, we can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder:
Volume = π(radius^2) x height
For Can A:
Radius = 10 cm / 2 = 5 cm
Volume = π(5^2) x 10.5 = 82.88π cm^3
For Can B:
Radius = 7.5 cm / 2 = 3.75 cm
Volume = π(3.75^2) x 11 = 164.52π cm^3
Since 164.52π > 82.88π, Can B has the greater volume. Therefore, the correct response is:
B Can B
