Question 763416: A satellite launch rocket has a cylindrical fuel tank. The fuel tank can hold V cubic meters of fuel. If the tank measures d meters across, what is the height of the tank in meters?

If the tank measures d metres across
I take it this is the diameter.
Volume of cylinder = Pi*r^2*h
V = Pi * (d/2)^2 * h
Height = V/(Pi*(d/2)^2)metres.
Hope this helps.
