Best Answer

You compare the areas of their bases.

Find the area of the square cake tin by multiplying 8 x 8 to get square inches.

Find the area of a circle (the base of the round tin) by multiplying pi x radius x radius (The radius is 4 inches, half the diameter). For pi you can use 22/7 or 3.1415.

So the area of the circular tin is 4 x 4 x 3.1415.

Is that bigger or smaller than the square tin?

(You can also do it physically, because the round tin will just about fit INSIDE the square tin, so all the extra corners of the square tin will hold more cake! Yum!)

How many square inches are in a gallon?

231 square inches are in a gallon. Answer 2 There are no square inches in a gallon, in the same way that there are no hours in a yard. They are different units. Cubic inches is possible though. Answer 3 If you're looking for the area of a gallon then it would depend on the container that houses the gallon. The constant in the formula would be 231 cubic inches. Just like a car's rate of travel is calculated with miles per hour, the area of a gallon would be calculated with the dimensions of the container.


A 20 gallon tank is a rectangular prism that holds 4600 cubic inches of water the bottom glass is 24 inches by 12 inches what is the height of the tank?

To find the height of the tank, we need to divide the volume of the tank (4600 cubic inches) by the area of the bottom glass (24 inches by 12 inches). The area of the bottom glass is 24 * 12 = 288 square inches. Dividing the volume (4600 cubic inches) by the area of the bottom glass (288 square inches) gives a height of 15.97 inches. Therefore, the height of the tank is approximately 15.97 inches.
