Answer: Abigail can make about 16 candles because 0.4 of a candle would not make an entire candle.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the Wax, it’s

V=Bh

V= l*w*h

= 15 cm * 11cm * 18 cm

= 2,970 cm^3

For the Mold, it’s

V=Bh

= r^2h

= * (3.1 cm)^2 * 6

= about 181 cm^3

Then you divide to find out how many candles you can make.

2,970 cm^3/181= 16.4

Hope this helps!
