The label will need to cover the lateral surface area of the can, which can be calculated using the formula for the lateral surface area of a cylinder: 2πrh, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Given that the diameter is 6 inches, the radius is half of that, which is 3 inches.
Now we can plug the values into the formula:
2 * 3.14 * 3 * 4 = 75.36 square inches
Therefore, 75.36 square inches of paper will be needed for the label on the outside of the can.
