A solid metallic cylinder of diameter 12 cm and height 15 cm is melted and recast into toys each in the shape of a cone of radius 3 cm and height 9 cm. Find the number of toys so formed.
Given:
Cylinder diameter(D) = 12 cm
Cylinder Radius(R) = 6 cm
Cylinder Height(H) = 15 cm
Cone radius(r) = 3 cm
Cone height(h) = 9 cm
Volume of Cylinder = πR2H
⇒ Volume of Cylinder = π × 62 × 15 = 540 π cm3
Volume of Cone = 
⇒ Volume of Cone =
= 27 π cm3
Number of toys formed = 
Number of toys formed = 
Answer: The number of toys formed = 20
