"6",
"4",
"12",

The only crux to find the answer faster is that:
Voulme is pi*r^2*h. The volume is a function of r^2. so r has to be the highest to find the largest volume.
So r=6 for the surface 8*12 face.
Volume = 216pi

Two spinning machines A and B can together produce 3,00,000 m of cloth in 10 hour, if machine B alone can produce the same amount of cloth in 15 hour, then how much cloth can machine A produce alone in 10 hour? | [
"1,50,000 m",
"None of these",
"50,000 m",
"1,00,000 m"

According to the question, machines A and B together produces 30,000 m of cloth in 1 hour.
And,machine B alone can produce 20,000 m cloth in 1 hour.
So, Machine A can produce (30,000 - 20,000) = 10,000 m cloth in 1 hour.
Hence, in 10 hour Machine A can produce 10 x 10,000 = 1,00,000 m of cloth.

The length of a rectangle is two - fifths of the radius of a circle. The radius of the circle is equal to the side of the square, whose area is 1225 sq.units. What is the area (in sq.units) of the rectangle if the rectangle if the breadth is 9 units? | [
"190 sq.units",
"126 sq.units",
"149 sq.units",
"940 sq.units"

Given that the area of the square = 1225 sq.units
=> Side of square = √1225 = 35 units
The radius of the circle = side of the square = 35 units Length of the rectangle = 2/5 * 35 = 14 units
Given that breadth = 10 units
Area of the rectangle = lb = 14 * 9 = 126 sq.units

A rectangular park 60 m long and 40 m wide has two concrete crossroads running in the middle of the park and rest of the park has been used as a lawn. If the area of the lawn is 2109 sq. m, then what is the width of the road? | [
"3 m",
"Cannot be determined",
"5.82 m",

Area of the park = (60 x 40) m2 = 2400 m2
Area of the lawn = 2109 m2
Area of the crossroads = (2400 - 2109) = 291
Let the width of the road be x metres. Then,
60x + 40x - x2 = 291
