The cubit is an ancient unit of length based on the distancebetween the elbow and the tip of the middle finger of the measurer.Assume that the distance ranged from 43 to 53 cm, and suppose thatancient drawings indicate that a cylindrical pillar was to have alength of 5.0 cubits and a diameter of 1.0 cubits. For the statedrange, what are the lower values for (a) the cylinder's length inmeters, (b) the cylinder's length in millimeters, and (c) thecylinder's volume in cubic meters? What are the upper values for(d) the cylinder's length in meters, (e) the cylinder's length inmillimeters, and (f) the cylinder's volume in cubic meters?
I am having a real hard time with this. My answers are alwayswrong. If you can explain it to me then I will thank you.
