Question

A patient in a hospital is given soup daily in a cylindrical bowl of diameter $7cm$. If the bowl is filled with soup to a height of $4cm$, how much soap the hospital has to prepare daily to serve $250$ patients?

Answer 1

Volume of soup for one patient $=\pi r^{2}h$

$=\frac{22}{7}\times \frac{7}{2}\times \frac{7}{2}\times 4$

$=154c{m}^3$

Volume of soup for 250 patients $=154\times 250c{m}^3$

$=38500c{m}^3$
