If the price of a pizza is proportional to the square of the radius of the pizza and 3 similar pizzas of radius 6 cm cost Rs.486, then what will be the cost of two pizzas of radius 8 cm each? Correct Answer Rs. 576
GIVEN:
The price of pizza is proportional to the square of the radius of pizza and 3 pizzas of radius 6 cm each costs Rs.486.
CONCEPT:
Basic ratio concept.
CALCULATION:
Price of 1 pizza ∝ r2
Price of 1 pizza = x × r2 , where x is constant
Price of one pizza of radius 6 cm = 486/3 = Rs.162
162 = x × r2 = x × 62
Or, x = 162/62
Price of one pizza of radius 8 cm = x × r2
Price of one pizza of radius 8 cm =(162/62 ) × 82 = Rs.288
So,
Price of two pizzas of radius 8 cm each = 288 × 2 = Rs.576
∴ The Price of two pizzas of radius 8 cm is Rs 576.
