Question 1115107: suppose a circular fish pond has to be sealed on the inside. the diameter of the pond is 3 metres and the depth is 1 1/2 metres. one litre of sealer covers 3 square metres. how many two-litre tins of sealer have to be purchased to complete the sealing job? Answer by addingup(3677) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Does the bottom have to be sealed?
Does it have a top that needs to be sealed?
Do you only have to seal the walls?
----------------------------------------
walls: (3*Pi*1.5)/3 = cans of sealer
bottom: [((3/2)^2)*Pi]/3 = cans of sealer NOTE: Double this amount if you also have to seal the top.
------
If you need to, don't forget to add eithe the number of cans for bottom or bottom-and-top to the number of cans for the walls to get your total.
