Diameter of cylindrical bowl = 7 cm
Radius of cylindrical bowl, r = 7/2 cm
= 3.5 cm
Bowl is filled with soup to a height of 4 cm,
h = 4 cm
Volume of soup in one bowl= πr2h
(22/7) × 3.52 × 4 = 154
Volume of soup in one bowl is 154 cm3
Therefore,
Volume of soup given to 250 patients = (250 × 154) cm3
= 38500 cm3
= 38.5 litres.
