Hi,

  

 V = 2512in^3 = pi*800in^3 and   r = 4in  (diameter = 8in)  pi+=+3.14

 +pi%2A800in%5E3+%2F+%28pi%2A16in%5E2%29 = h

        50in = h

The volume of a cylindrical can is 2512. Inches cubed. If the diameter is 8 inches, find the height using pi
**
volume of can=area of circular end*height
height=volume of can/area of circular end
height=2512/πr^2
r=8/2=4
height=2512/16π
height=157π inches
