Answer

Given,

Height of large cylindrical vessel (h1) = 24 cm

Diameter of large cylindrical vessel = 40 cm

Radius of large cylindrical vessel (r1) = 402\dfrac{40}{2} = 20 cm.

Height of small cylindrical vessel (h2) = 10 cm

Diameter of small cylindrical vessel = 8 cm

Radius of small cylindrical vessel (r2) = 82\dfrac{8}{2} = 4 cm.

Let no. of small cylindrical bottles which can be filled be n.

Volume of large cylindrical vessel = n × Volume of small cylindrical vessel

13πr12h1=n×13πr22h2n=r12h1r22h2n=202×2442×10n=400×2416×10n=60.\therefore \dfrac{1}{3}πr1^2h1 = n \times \dfrac{1}{3}πr2^2h2 \\[1em] \Rightarrow n = \dfrac{r1^2h1}{r2^2h2} \\[1em] \Rightarrow n = \dfrac{20^2 \times 24}{4^2 \times 10} \\[1em] \Rightarrow n = \dfrac{400 \times 24}{16 \times 10} \\[1em] \Rightarrow n = 60.

Hence, no. of small cylindrical bottles which an be filled = 60.
