Problema Solution

a cylindrical container whose radius is 2 inches that holds 3/4 pint. find the height in inches

Answer provided by our tutors

1 pint = 28.875 in^3

3/4 pint = (3/4)*28.875 in^3

3/4 pint = 21.65625 in^3

V = 21.65625 in^3 the volume of the cylinder

R = 2 in the radius of the culinder

H = the height of the cylinder

The formula for the volume of cylinder is: V = R^2*pi*H

2^2*pi*H = 21.65625
