Mrs. Santiago's consumer science class is making two different-size cheesecakes for a fundraiser.
The large cheesecake has a diameter of 12 inches
The small cheesecake has a diameter of 4 inches
Part A: If the pans are both 3 inches deep, how many times greater is the volume
Of the large pan than that of the small pan? Show your work
Part B: When shipped, the large cheesecakes will be packaged in a box with dimensions of 12 in x
12 in x 3 in. What percentage of the box does the large cheesecake take up?
Show all work for each part and give at least 2 sentences explaination for each part.

Part A: 9 times

Part B: 79%

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Volume of the large pan = πr²h

Where,

radius (r) = ½(diameter) = ½(12) = 6 in.

height (h) = 3 in.

Volume = π*6²*3

Volume of the large pan = 339.29 in.³

Volume of the small pan = πr²h

r = ½(4) = 2 in.

h = 3 in

Volume of small pan = π*2²*3

Volume of the small pan = 37.7 in.³

✔️To determine how many times the volume of the large pan is greater than the small pan, divide the volume of the larger by the smaller:

= 339.29/37.7 ≈ 9

✅The volume of the large pan is about 9 times greater than the volume of the smaller pan.

Part B:

✔️Find the volume of the box:

Volume of box = L*W*H

Where,

L = 12 in.

W = 12 in.

H = 3 in.

Volume of the box = 12*12*3 = 432 in.³

Divide the volume of the large pan over the volume of the box and multiply by 100%

Thus:

339.29/432 × 100

= 78.5393519 ≈ 79%

The large cheesecake takes up about 79%
