Question

A can is 3" in diameter and 7" tall. A shipper wants to ship cans in a box with 2 layers. 4 rows, and 5 cans per row. The box must hold 40 cans. What is the volume of the box?

A) 378 in3
B) 1,980 in3
C) 2,520 in3
D) 33,600 in3

Answer 1

Imagine 4rows of cans
And five columns of cans




Therefore since we know each can has a diameter of 3, imagine it being the length of the circle, then the length would be 3x5cans and the width to be 3x4cans and finally the height is 7 but there's two layers so that's 14.
Volume is (length) X (width) X (height)
So 15x12x14=2520
