(iv) What extra profit did store earn by increasing price in May month.
38. In a toys manufacturing company, wooden parts are assembled and painted to prepare a toy. For the
wood processing activity center, the wood is taken out of storage to be sawed, after which it undergoes
rough polishing, then is cut, drilled and has holes punched in it. It is then fine polished using sandpaper.
For the retail packaging and delivery activity center, the polished wood sub-parts are assembled together,
then decorated using paint.

One specific toy is in the shape of a cone mounted on a cylinder. The total height of the toy is 110 mm
and the height of its conical part is 77 mm. The diameters of the base of the conical part is 72 mm and
that of the cylindrical part is 40 mm.
(i) If its cylindrical part is to be painted red, what is the surface area need to be painted ?
(ii) If its conical part is to be painted blue, what is the surface area need to be painted ?
(iii) How much of the wood have been used in making the toy ?
O

(iv) If the cost of painting the toy is 2 paise for 8 mm2
π , then what is the cost of painting of a box of
100 toys?
