  • Options
  • A. 22/7 x 24/35
  • B. 22/7 x 36 x 4
  • C. 22/7 x 36/5
  • D. 22/7 x 37/21

  • Correct Answer
  • 22/7 x 24/35 

    Explanation

    Since level of water increased in cylinder by height 4. 

    This is because of the rectangular block .

     

    Therefore , area of rectangular block immersed in water is 

    = 22 7 × 6 × 6 × 4   

    Thats why portion of block immersed in water is 

    = (22/7 * 36 * 4) / total vol. of rectangle 

    = (22/7 * 36 * 4)/ (7*5*6) 

    = (22/7 * 24)/ 35.
