dominador has red and blue colored cylindrical cans with the same radius of 20cm but different height. the red can is 30cm tall. the volume of the blue can is 2/3 more than that of the red can. what is the volume of the blue can?

OpenStudy (aripotta):

find the volume of the red can. then divide it by three and multiply it by 5

OpenStudy (aripotta):

do you know the formula for the volume of a cylinder?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yap

OpenStudy (aripotta):

ok, so you know what to do now, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but why you will divide it by 3 and multiply by 5?

OpenStudy (aripotta):

divide it by three to get 1/3 of the volume. when you multiply it by 5 it'll be 2/3 more than the original

OpenStudy (aripotta):

there's probably other ways to do it, but that seems like the easiest way to me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer will be 62,800 cubic cm

OpenStudy (aripotta):

i got 62831

OpenStudy (aripotta):

but i used the button on my calculator for pi. you're probably using 3.14
