A cylindrical container has a diameter of 5 inches and a height of 12 inches. The container will be wrapped and delivered as a gift. What measurement is closest to the amount of wrapping paper needed to cover the container without overlap?

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write your formula

2. Plug it in

3. Solve

these steps will help you out with all of your surface area problems.

Like this

Since it is a diameter you have to divide the diameter by 2. That will get you your radius. Then you write your formula for a cylinder. Your formula is...

V = Bh                            (Pie is also known as 3.14)

your big (B) is (pie times r squared) Then you add your height.

so your formula will look like this...

V = pie times r squared...

the full formula will be...

V = (3.14) times (2.5 squared) times the height which in this case is (12)

everything together will be...

V = (3.14) (2.5^2) (12)

all you have to do is multiply all of that and you will get your answer.

The answer is...

V = 236 inches ^2                        (Just a tip, the ^ sign means to the power of)
