How do you guess how many candy corns are in a jar?
Measure the base of the cylinder and the height of the cylinder. Divide the base of the cylinder by two to find the radius. Then square the radius and multiply the result by the height and pi, which is estimated at 3.14, or 22/7 as a fraction. Divide the volume of the jar by the average volume of candy corn.
How do you work out the radius?
