SSC CGL 2018 PYQ — Question 59

SSC CGL Tier II Quant - 19/02/2018 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q59

The ratio of the curved surface area and total surface area of a cylinder is 2 : 5. If the total surface area is 3080 cm2, then what is the volume (in cm3) of the cylinder?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 4312√6

CSA/TSA = 2/5

2πrh/2π(r + h) = 2/5

5h = 2r + 2h

3h = 2r 

h = 2r/3

TSA = 3080 cm2

2π(r + h) = 3080

2 × 22/7 × 5r2/3 = 3080

r2 = 294

r = 7√6

h = 2 × 7√6/3 = 14√6/3

Volume = πr2h = 22/7 × 294 × 14√6/3 = 4312√6 cm3
