SSC MTS - 14/10/2024 - (12:30 PM - 2:30 PM) • Quantitative Aptitude • Q8

The curved surface area of a cylinder of height 42 cm is 3960 cm2. Find its volume. (π = 22/7)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 29700 cm3.

Given CSA = 2πrh = 3960 and h = 42

2πh = 2 × (22/7) × 42 = 264 ⇒ r = 3960 ÷ 264 = 15 cm

Volume = πr²h = (22/7) × 15² × 42 = 29700 cm³
