A soft drink is available in two packs - (i) a tin can with a rectangular base of length 5cm and width 4cm, having a height of 15cm and  (ii) a plastic cylinder with circular base of diameter 7cm and height 10cm. Which container has greater capacity and by how much?

Explanation

Here, l=length , b=breadth , h=height , `h^'`=height of cylinder and r=radius.

For rectangular

`l=5cm` , `b=4cm` and `h=15cm`

`V=l×b×h`

`V=5x4x15` = `300cm^3`
For cylinder

`D=7cm` , `h^'=10cm`

`V^('')=pir^2h^'`
