Answer:
[tex]27\ containers[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the volume of one container (cylinder) is equal to
[tex]V=\pi r^{2}h[/tex]
we have
[tex]r=4/2=2\ cm[/tex] -----> the radius is half the diameter
[tex]h=6\ cm[/tex]
substitute
[tex]V=(3.14)(2^{2})(6)=75.36\ cm^{3}[/tex]
step 2
By proportion
Find the the minimum number of identical containers that Sue would need to make [tex]2,000\ cm^{3}[/tex] of ice
[tex]\frac{1}{75.36}=\frac{x}{2,000}\\ \\x=2,000/75.36\\ \\x= 26.5\ containers[/tex]
Round to the nearest whole number
[tex]26.5=27\ containers[/tex]
Answer: 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The height of the cylindrical container = 6 cm
Diameter of container = 4 cm
Then the radius of the container = [tex]\frac{4}{2}=[/tex]2 cm
Now, the volume of the cylindrical container is given by :-
[tex]\text{Volume}=\pi r^2 h\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Volume}=(3.14)(2)^2(6)=75.3982236862\approx75.4\ cm^3[/tex]
Now, the minimum number of identical containers that Sue would need to make 2,000 [tex]cm^3[/tex] of ice is given by:-
[tex]\frac{2000}{75.4}=26.525198939\approx27[/tex]
Hence, the minimum number of identical containers that Sue would need to make 2,000 [tex]cm^3[/tex] of ice is 27.
