Solution
The correct option is A 2 Given that, radius of the pen holder is 2m.
Height of the pen holder is 3m.
Area of the given cardboard sheet is 32πm2.
We know that, curved surface area of a cylinder =2πrh
Area of a circle =πr2
Now, area of the cardboard sheet required to make 1 pen holder =2πrh+πr2 =12π+4π =16πm2
Thus, total number of pen holders that can be created =Area of cardboard sheetCardboard sheet required to make 1 pen holder =32π16π =2
