SSC CGL - 10th June 2019 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q69

The curved surface area and the volume of a cylinder is 264 cm2 and 924 cm3, respectively. What is the ratio of its radius to its height? (Take π = 22/7)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct Answer is Option 2 i.e 7 : 6

Concept

Understanding

Application

Cylinder:

Curved surface area = 2πrh

Volume = πr2h

 

 

Given:

2πrh = 264 ...(1)

πr2h = 924 …(2)            

Dividing 1 by 2:

r/2 = 924/264 

⇒ r/2 = 7/2

⇒ r = 7

From 1:

2 × 22/7 × 7 × h = 264

⇒ h = 264/44

⇒ h = 6 cm

Hence,

r : h = 7 : 6
