Suppose that 0.25 cubic inch of paint is applied to a circular piece of plastic with a diameter of 20 inches. Estimate the thickness of the plate. (Hint: thickness equals volumes devided by areas).
-----------
The length or height is needed for the calculations if it's a cylinder.
---------
If it's a flat piece:
Area = pi*r^2 = 100pi sq inches
Thickness = 0.25/(100pi) inches

Hint: We don't need hints.
