You can put this solution on YOUR website! The volume of a cylindrical can is about 120 cubic centimeters. If the height of the can is 10 cm, determine the radius of the can. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
V(cylinder) = pi*r^2*h
r=radius
h=height
120 = pi*r^2*10
120/10 = pi*r^2
12=pi*r^2
12/pi= r^2
sqrt(12/pi) = r
1.9544
the radius of the cylindrical can is approximately 1.95 cm.
