    Answer: 88 in2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The side of the can, which when "unrolled" is a rectangle, with width = height of the cylinder (7 in); and length = Circumference = 2π radius

    Surface area of the curved surface of the can = 2π (diameter/2) x height

    Replacing with the values given:

    S = 2π (4/2) x 7 = 2π (2) x 7 = 88 in2

    Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
