a conical water-jug is 7cm in diameter and 6cm deep. find the volume of water it can hold. [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]

  • A. 22cm2
  • B. 44cm3
  • C. 77cm3
  • D. 308cm3

Correct Answer: C. 77cm3

Explanation

Volume = \(\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times \frac{7}{2} \times \frac{7}{2} \times \frac{6}{1}\)

V = \(\frac{6468}{84}\)

= 77cm3
