You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The volume of a right cylinder can be determined by πr²h, where r is the radius, h is the height, and pi is a constant. So:
76πr²=600000
πr²=600000/76=7894.7368421052631578947368421053
r²=2512.9727856615053016139541585134
r=50.129559998682467007612058287838 cms. is the length of the radius. ☺☺☺☺
