When looking at fire extinguishers online, the dimensions are always listed in the above format (A x B x C).
What does each letter represent?
Example: 3" x 5.5" x 14.9"
I assume the third (C) is height; I would think that (A) and (B) are perhaps diameter or circumference, but mathematically the numbers do not correspond (i.e. 3*pi != 5.5)

$\begingroup$They give them in length x width x height. You can think of it as the smallest bounding rectangular prism that would fit the entire extinguisher.
