SSC MTS - 18/10/2024 - (12:30 PM - 2:30 PM) • Quantitative Aptitude • Q3

The capacity of an ice cream cone is 66 cm3. What is the radius ( in cm ) of its base if its height is 7 cm ( use π=227\pi = {22\over7}) ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is  option 3  i.e.  3 .

Volume formula: (1/3) × π × r² × h = 66

(1/3) × (22/7) × r² × 7 = 66

=> (22/3) × r² = 66

=> r² = (66 × 3) / 22 = 9

=> r = √9 = 3 cm
