    This is the concept of volumes of solid materials, to get the amount of wax needed to make the candle we will require to calculate for the volume of the candle.

    volume=πr^2h

    since we are given the circumference of the candle we need to get the radius first;

    C=πd

    C=31.416 cm

    31.416=πd

    d=31.416/π

    d=10.0000 cm

    Therefore the radius will be 5 cm.

    The volume of the wax required to make the candle will be:

    V=πr^2h

    V=π*5^2*13

    V=1,021.02 cm^3
