    What part of a ditch, 48 m long, 16.5 m broad and 4 m deep can be filled by the earth got by digging a cylindrical tunnel of diameter 4 m and length 56 m? \[\left( \text{Use}\,\,\pi =\frac{22}{7} \right)\]

    A)  \[\frac{1}{9}\]

    B)  \[\frac{2}{9}\]

    C)  \[\frac{7}{9}\]

    D)  \[\frac{8}{9}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Volume of earth taken out \[=\pi {{r}^{2}}h\] \[=\frac{22}{7}\times 2\times 2\times 56=704\,\,{{\text{m}}^{3}}\] Volume of the ditch \[=48\times 16.5\times 4\,\,{{\text{m}}^{3}}=3168\,\,{{\text{m}}^{3}}\] Part of the ditch filled \[=\frac{704}{3168}=\frac{2}{9}\]
