Answer:
£80.33
Explanation:
The formula for the Volume of a cylinder = πr²h
The diameter of a cylindrical column is 60cm and its height is 4.2m
Converting the diameter to meter
100 cm = 1 m
60 cm = x
Cross Multiply
100 × x = 60 × 1
x = 60/100
x = 0.6m
The diameter of the cylinder = 0.6m
Radius = Diameter/2
Radius = 0.6m/2
Radius = 0.3m
Volume of a cylinder = πr²h
= π × 0.3² × 4.2
= 1.18752 m²
Approximately = 1.19 m²
The cost of making it is £67.50 per cubic metre. What is the cost of making it?
The volume of the cylindrical column = 1.19 m²
Hence:
1m² = £67.50
1.19m² = x
Cross Multiply
x × 1m² = 1.19 m² × £67.50
x = 1.19 m² × £67.50/1 m²
x = £ 80.325
Approximately = £80.33
Therefore, the cost of making the cylindrical column = £80.33
