Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
V\(\pi\)r2h = \(\pi\)(3)2(10) = 90\(\pi\)cm3
V = \(\pi\)(5)2 x 18 = 450\(\pi\)cm3
No of volume = \(\frac{450\pi}{90\pi}\)
= 5
selling price = 5 x N15 = N75
profit = N75 - N50 = N25.00
V\(\pi\)r2h = \(\pi\)(3)2(10) = 90\(\pi\)cm3
V = \(\pi\)(5)2 x 18 = 450\(\pi\)cm3
No of volume = \(\frac{450\pi}{90\pi}\)
= 5
selling price = 5 x N15 = N75
profit = N75 - N50 = N25.00
