A cylindrical container with internal radius 7 cm and height 30 cm is completely filled with water. The water is then poured into identical conical vessels, each having a radius of 3.5 cm and height of 6 cm. How many such conical vessels can be completely filled with the water from the cylinder?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Volume of the cylinder = 22/7 × 7² × 30 = 4620 cm³
Volume of one cone = 1/3 × 22/7 × 3.5² × 6
= 77 cm³
Number of vessels = 4620 / 77 = 60
