Question

Sarah was at the local grocery store buying ice cream for her brother. She saw two cartons of ice cream that were the same brand and same price, but had different packaging, as shown below. Determine which container holds more ice cream. Please show all of your steps in the space below.

Answer 1

i think you'll have to find areas of the give figures

Answer 2

Ok, that's what I was thinking too

Answer 3

Area of cylinder =2 pi r^ 2 + 2 pi r h
Area of a Cube = 6 a ^2

Answer 4

rest you can do or should i show the work ???

Answer 5

What's the A stand for in the cube formula? Can't be area if that's what I'm trying to find

Answer 6

A= length of one side

Answer 7

If you could show me the work that'd be lovely 0:)

Answer 8

ok i'll np

Answer 9

Well can it be any side? or do I do every side?
**Area is not my thing lol

Answer 10

Thank you!

Answer 11

sorry its cuboid its area is
A = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw

Answer 12

Ah ok, that makes more sense lol

Answer 13

I got 118,128
Something tells me that's not right lol

Answer 14

cuboid = 248 in^2
cylinder= 207 in^2
so cuboid will contain more icecream

Answer 15

May I ask how you got that? Because I was obviously way off..

Answer 16

yeah sure
area of cuboid
= 2(4)(10)+2(10)(6)+2(6)(4)
=248

Answer 17

area of cylinder
=2*pi*3^2 + 2*pi*3*8
value of pi is 3.1415
=207

Answer 18

I seriously don't know how I messed up on the cuboid.. I must have punched something wrong in my calculator??? Thank you though! Soo much help.
