greater capacity and by how much?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Dear friend steps are as follows:

GIVEN,

base of square pack= 6cm,     height = 14cm

base of circular pack (radius) = 3.5cm ,     height = 12cm

WE KNOW,

volume of a figure = (BASE AREA)² × HEIGHT

SQUARE

AREA OF BASE= SIDE x SIDE

=   6 x 6

= 36cm²

SO VOLUME OF THIS PACK = base area x height

                                              = 36 x 14

                                              =504 cm³

CIRCLE

AREA OF BASE  = πr²                        

= 22/7× 3.5 × 3.5

= 38.5cm²

SO VOLUME OF THIS PACK = base area x height

                                              = 38.5 x 12

                                             = 462 cm³

HENCE WE CAN CLEARLY SAY THAT THE FIRST PACK HAS GREATER CAPACITY BY 42 cm^3

hope this helps you!!!
