A cylindrical can has a radius of 3 centimeters and a height of 24 centimeters. What is the area, in square centimeters, of a rectangular label that completely covers the curved surface of the can without over-lapping?	Choose the correct answer
A) 16 pi  B) 64 pi  C) 96 pi  D) 144 pi  E) 576 pi
They are asking the lateral surface area of the cylinder.   the Lateral surface area = 2* pi * r *h   = 2*pi*3*24=144 pi   Answer is 144 pi.
