The true statement is David's calculations are incorrect, he used the circumference and the height to find the volume.

Volume

Correct calculation:

  • Height = 15.2 cm
  • Circumference = 8.6 inches

C = 2πr

8.6 = 2 × 3.14 × r

8.6 = 6.28r

r = 8.6/6.28

r = 1.36942675159235 inches

convert 1.36942675159235 inches to cm

= 3.478343949044569 cm

Approximately,

r = 3.5 cm

Volume = πr²h

= 3.14 × 3.5² × 15.2

= 3.14 × 12.25 × 15.2

= 584.668 cm³

Approximately,

volume = 584.7 cm³
