SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level - 28th July 2025 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q48

An ice cream cone is shaped like a cone having radius of 3.5 cm and a height of 12 cm. How much ice cream (in cm³) can it hold?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Given:

Radius (r) = 3.5 cm

Height (h) = 12 cm

Volume of the cone = (1/3) × π × r² × h

= (1/3) × (22/7) × (3.5)² × 12

= (1/3) × (22/7) × 12.25 × 12

= (1/3) × 462

= 154 cm³
