Answer:

51 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cylinder = pi * R² * h

Diameter of cylindrical jar = 3 inches

Volume of wax cylindrical jar = 360 in³

Radius of cylinder = diameter / 2 = 3 / 2 = 1.5 in

V = pi * R² * h

360 = pi * 1.5² * h

360 = 22/7 * 1.5² * h

360 * 7 = 22 * 2.25 * h

2520 = 49.5h

h = 2520 / 49.5

h = 50.909090

Maximum Height, h = 51 inches (nearest inch)
