Gold in the form of solid cylinders will be molded into solid blocks. Each cylinder has a diameter of 6.18 cm and a height of 6 cm. Each solid block will have a volume of 360 cm3. How many cylinders of gold will it take to mold one block of gold?

Respuesta :

First we need to find out the volume of one cylinder. We already know the volume of the block of gold is 360cm3

V = Pie * radius squared* height.

Pie is 3.142

radius is 6.18/2 = 3.09 cm

height is 6cm

V = 3.142 * 3.09 * 3.09 * 6

V = 180cm3

Now we divide the volume of this cylinder with the volume of block of gold.

360/180 = 2

So it will take 2 cylinders to mold one block of gold.
