To calculate the surface area of a 55-gallon drum, we first need to determine the dimensions of the drum. A standard 55-gallon drum typically has a diameter of 22.5 inches and a height of 33.5 inches. The surface area of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula 2πr² + 2πrh, where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder. Plugging in the values for the radius and height of the drum, we can calculate the surface area in square inches.
To determine how many yards of gravel fit into a 55-gallon drum, you first need to convert gallons to cubic yards. A 55-gallon drum holds about 0.2 cubic yards (since 1 cubic yard equals 201.97 gallons). Therefore, approximately 0.2 cubic yards of gravel can fit into a 55-gallon drum.
