The label will need an area of 144 square inches of paper.
not in the answer box thingy
The canned answer is wrong again.
The surface you want would be just the "sleeve" of the can,
you would not cover the circular ends, so
SA = 2π rh
= 2(π)(3)(4) in^2
= appr 75.4 in^2
I have no clue how "it" got 144 in^2
