Question

a can of olives has a diameter of 6 inches and a height of 4 inches. how many square inches of paper will be needed for the label on the outside of the can? use 3.14 for pi. (1 point)376.875.36150.72181.88

Explanation:

Step1: Find can's circumference

The label covers the lateral surface, so first calculate the circumference of the circular base using $C = \pi d$.
$C = 3.14 \times 6 = 18.84$ inches

Step2: Calculate lateral surface area

The lateral surface area (label area) is circumference times height: $A = C \times h$.
$A = 18.84 \times 4 = 75.36$ square inches

Answer:

B. 75.36
