Finding height and volume of a cylinder
I agree the wording isn't clear. My guess at the intent is to find the height that gives the most volume per unit area of wall. This would be a problem with a non-trivial answer and a real world application (how do I use the least steel and get the most capacity in my drum?).- jesse24
