    Geometry question need help ASAP!
    You are designing a can(cylinder) for your company's new product. The sales department has told you that the colume of each cylinder will be 12 fl oz, which is about the same as 24.5in cubed. The radius is 1.12, how tall can it be?

    Do you know the formula for the volume of a cylinder? One of the variables in the formula is h, the cylinder's height. If you write out the formula for the volume using 1.12 as the radius, and set it equal to 24.5, you simply have to solve for h.

    Can you take it from there? If not, where are you still getting stuck?
