There are an infinite number of potential answers to this question. V = (pi)r^2h where V is volume, r is radius and h is height. So first convert fl oz to cm^3 12 US fluid ounces = 354.882355 centimeters^3 or cubic inches: 12 US fluid ounces = 21.65625 inches^3 so: 21.66 = 3.14 * r^2 * h Plug in a value for either the radius or the height and solve. Say you wanted the can to be eight inches high: 21.66/8=3.14 * r^2 2.71/3.14=r^2 sqrt(0.863) = sqrt(r^2) r = 0.93 Double the radius to get the width, and you have your answer. In other words, a can containing 12 fl oz. that was eight inches high should be a about 1.86 inches wide.
