i.e. = 2pi R2L

so the volume will be doubled and also the weight will be

4}A class has 50 students, 26 boys and 24 girls. The principal divided the students in group of 30 and 20.

He doesn’t know the exact no. of boys or girls in the group. But the proportion of no. of boys in group A is more than that of the no. of  girls in group B.
