PLEASE HELP
A company makes steel rods shaped like cylinders. Each rod has a diameter of 8 centimeters and a height of 20 centimeters. If the company used 28,134.4 cm3 of steel, how many rods did it make?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1,172.3 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the volume of one rod, then divide the total volume of steel used by the volume of one rod.  The volume of one rod is

V = (πd²/4)h

d = 4 cm

h = 20 cm

Plugin the numbers and get V in cm³, then divide the given total volume of 28,134.4 cm³ by V.  If the result is not an integer, then round down.

Add

20 + 4 = 24

Then

28,134.4 ÷ 24 = 1172.26

Rounded to the nearest 0.1 or  the Tenths Place = 1,172.3

Therefore, 1,172.3 rods will be made per hour.
