A hemispherical bowl of internal radius 18 cm contains a liquid. The liquid is filled in small cylindrical bottles of internal radius 3 cm and internal height 4 cm. What is the number of bottles used to empty the bowl ? Correct Answer 108

Given:

Internal radius of hemispherical bowl = 18 cm

Internal radius of bottle = 3 cm

Internal height of bottle = 4 cm

Formula used:

Volume of a hemisphere = (2/3) πR3

Volume of a cylinder = πr2h

R = radius of hemisphere, h = height of the cylinder

r = radius of the cylinder

Calculation:

Total volume of liquid in hemisphere = 2/3 × π ×18= 3888π cm3

Let the number of bottles be n

Then according to the question:

3888π = n × π × (3)2 × 4

⇒ n = 108

∴ Total number of bottles = 108
