abhayam  (9 years ago)

ans is 8

First we will find the min volumeof cone that can be made from given cuboid,in this way we can get the maximum number of cones that can be cut(cone of smallest volume).

for this
r=max(24,16)/2 r=12 ,h=9 volume=432pi
r=max(9,16)/2 r=8,h=24 volume=512pi
r=max(24,9)/2 r=12,h=19 volume=768pi


take the minimum of volume i.e 432pi


Volume of cuboid=l*b*h=3456
max number of cones required are = volume of cuboid/volume of cone of minimum volume

Only restriction given is that base of the cone should be on one of the face of cuboid. Since there are no other restrictions, any value of the base radius is possible such as r=1, 2, 0.2, 0.01 etc because all such bases can be on one of the face of cuboid. Theoretically, infinite number of cones can be cut.

1024*128+256*2+10===
1024=4^5;
128=4^3 * 2;
256==4^4 ;

then
4^5 * 4^3 *2 +4^4 * 2 + 4 * 2 + 2 then
4^8 * 2 + 4^4 * 2 + 4*2 + 4^0 * 2 then
20002022

then right ans is 4
