A cylinder with a radius of 4 inches and a height of 6 inches is filled to the top with water then poured into a 9in by11in rectangular pan. How high is the water in the pan?

Answer 1

The cylinder volume is pi*R^2*H. Where. R = 4 inches, H = 6 inches

so, Volume = 301.6 in^3

The pan has an area of 9 x 11 = 99 in^2

Volume of the pan is h x 99. Where h is height of water in the pan,

Therefore; h x 99 = 301.59. Solving for h = 3.046 inches
