      Question

      A hollow cylindrical drum has an internal radius of 4.8 cm.

      If its length is 18 cm and the thickness is 2.5 cm, calculate the volume of the drum. (Use π = 3.14)
      A 1,708.05 cm³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 2,708.05 cm³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 1,558.05 cm³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 2,308.05 cm³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Outer radius of drum = 4.8 + 2.5 = 7.3 cm

      Volume of hollow cylinder = π × height × [(outer radius)² - (inner radius)²]

      = 3.14 × 18 × (outer radius + inner radius) × (outer radius - inner radius)

      = 3.14 × 18 × (7.3 + 4.8) × (7.3 - 4.8)

      = 3.14 × 18 × 12.1 × 2.5

      = 3.14 × 18 × 30.25

      = 1,708.05 cm³
