Answer:
[tex] 15,260.4 \: {in}^{3} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Radius of candle = 3 inches
Height of candle = 2 inches
Wax needed to make one candle = Volume of one cylindrical candle
[tex] =\pi r^2 h[/tex]
[tex] =3.14(3)^2 (2)[/tex]
[tex] =56.52\: in^3 [/tex]
Volume of wax needed to make 270 candles
[tex] = 270 \times wax\: needed \: to\:make \: one \: candle \\ \\ = 270 \times 56.52 \\ \\ = 15,260.4 \: {in}^{3} [/tex]
