the area of the base of a can is 45 square inches. its height is 12 inches. if 1/3 of the height is cut off, what will be the volume of the can?

volume = 360 inches³

Step-by-step explanation:

The can itself is a cylinder. The volume of a cylinder can be calculated as follows

volume of a cylinder  = πr²h

where

r = radius

h = height

1/3 of the height was cut off that means  1/3 × 12 = 4 inches of the height was cut off.  The new height of the can will be 12 - 4 = 8 inches. Therefore,

volume = πr²h =

base area which is the area of a circle = πr² = 45 inches²

volume = 45 × 8

volume = 360 inches³

true

step-by-step explanation:

ou would have 12 of each
