\n" ); document.write( "V = (pi)(r^2)(h)

\n" ); document.write( "The diameter is increased by 15%, so the radius is increased by 15%.

\n" ); document.write( "Represent the increase of 15% as multiplication by a factor of 100%+15%=115%=1.15.
\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "The volume of the larger can is 1.3225 times the volume of the smaller; that is an increase of (0.3225*100)=32.25%.

\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER (to the nearest percent): 32%
