A can has a radius of 2.5 inches and a height of 9.4 inches what is the area of a label to the nearest tenth that goes all around the can use 3.14 for pi?

Using: circumference of circle = 2 X pi X radius

and area = length X width (or circumference X height in this case.)

Circumference = 2 X 3.14 X 2.5 = 15.7

Area = 15.7 X 9.4 = 147.58

Since it is requested to the nearest tenth, 147.6

Isn't it a bit late to be doing this homework on a Sunday afternoon?
