In a conical tent of diameter 13.2 m and vertical height 14 m, how many full bags of wheat can be emptied, if the space required for the wheat in each bag is 29.04 m3? [Use π = 22/7]

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 22.

Radius (r) of cone = 13.2/2 = 6.6 m

Volume of cone = (1/3)πr2h  = (1/3) × (22/7) × (6.6)2 × 14 = 638.88 m3

Number of bags = 638.88/29.04 = 22
