To find the surface area of the can, we need to find the area of the curved side and the area of the circular top and bottom.
The curved side area can be found using the formula for the lateral surface area of a cylinder, which is given by 2 * pi * r * h, where r is the radius and h is the height. The radius is half the diameter, so it is 6/2 = 3 inches.
Curved side area = 2 * 3.14 * 3 * 4 = 75.36 square inches.
The area of the circular top and bottom can be found using the formula for the area of a circle, which is given by pi * r^2. The radius is half the diameter, so it is 6/2 = 3 inches.
Circular top and bottom area = 2 * 3.14 * 3^2 = 56.52 square inches.
Total surface area = Curved side area + Circular top and bottom area = 75.36 + 56.52 = 131.88 square inches.
Therefore, the answer is 131.88.
