We calculate for the volumes of each of the wax needed for the candles through the equations presented below.
For cylinder:
V = πr²h
where V is volume, r is radius and h is height.
Substituting the known values,
V = (3.14)(3 in)²(6 in)
V = 169.56 in³
For sphere:
V = 4πr³/3
Substituting the known values,
V = 4(3.14)(3 in)³ / 3 = 113.04 in³
The difference between the two volumes,
difference of volumes = 169.56 in³ - 113.04 in³
difference of volumes = 56.52 in³
Thus, the answer to this item is the last choice.
