Question
A patient in a hospital is given soup daily in a cylindrical bowl of diameter 7 cm. If the bowl is filled with soup to a height of 4 cm, how much soup the hospital has to prepare daily to serve 250 patients?
Hint:
We calculate the volume of soup; hospital has to give to a single patient daily. Then we multiply that volume with the number of patients to get the total amount of soup.
The correct answer is: Hospital has to prepare 38500 cm3 soup daily to serve 250 patients.
Explanations:
Step 1 of 3:
Hospital gives soup in a cylindrical bowl of diameter 7 cm. Then, the radius of the bowl is 3.5 cm(= r).
The bowl is filled with soup to a height of 4 cm(= h).
Step 2 of 3:
The volume of soup given to a single patient is
Step 3 of 3:
The total volume of soup; hospital has to prepare daily for serving 250 patients, is 154250 = 38500 cm3
Final Answer:
Hospital has to prepare 38500 cm3 soup daily to serve 250 patients.

Triangles ABC and DEF above are similar. How much longer than segment EF is segment DE ?
Note:
There are three ways to prove that two triangles are similar- AAA,
SAS, SSS.
AAA means that the corresponding angles are equal,
SAS means two sides of the triangles are in equal ratio and the angles between these two sides are equal,
SSS means that all three corresponding sides have equal ratio

The load capacity of a certain washing machine is 12 pounds. What is the approximate load capacity of the same washing machine, in kilograms?
( 1 kilogram = 2.2046 pounds)
Note:
There are many other units of weight such as ton, ounce, gram, stone, grain, milligram, etc. There is conversion formula for each of these pairs, for eg.
1 kilogram = 35.27 ounce= 0.16 stone= 1000 gram
1 pound= 16 ounce= 0.07 stone= 435.60 gram
