      Question

      A solid right circular cylinder of radius 7 cm and

      height 10 cm is melted and recast into right circular cones each of radius 7 cm and height 5 cm. How many cones are formed?
      A 2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 10 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Volume of cylinder = πr²h = π × 7² × 10 = 490π Volume of one cone = (1/3)πr²h = (1/3)π × 7² × 5 = (1/3)π × 49 × 5 = (245/3)π Number of cones = 490π / ((245/3)π) = 490 × 3 / 245 = (490/245) × 3 = 2 × 3 = 6
