Q:
Tanks A and B are each in the shape of a right circular cylinder. The interior of tank A has a height of 10 meters and a circumference of 8 meters, and the interior of tank B has a height of 8 meters and a circumference of 10 meters. The capacity of tank A is what percent of the capacity of tank B ?
Answer & Explanation
Answer: C) 80%
Explanation: circumference of A = = 8 => so r =
volume = =
circumference of B = = 10 => so r =
volume = =
so ratio of capacities = 160/200 = 0.8
so capacity of A will be 80% of the capacity of B.
