30 full cylindrical containers are required to completely fill the fish tank.
What is a cylinder?
- A cylinder is a surface made up of all the points on all the lines that are parallel to a given line and pass through a set plane curve in a plane that is not parallel to the given line.
- Such cylinders have been referred to as generalized cylinders at times.
To find what is the least number of full cylindrical containers needed to completely fill the fish tank:
We know the volume of the cylinder is given by: [tex]V=\pi r^{2} h[/tex]
The volume of a cylinder:
[tex]V=\pi (\frac{6}{2} )^{2} (8)\\V=75\pi inches^{3}[/tex]
The volume of cube V = 24 × 24 × 12 = 6912 cubic inches
