Detailed Solution

Here, the radius of the coin= diameter2=2.52=1.25 cm
Now we know that coins are of cylindrical shape so their volume will be given by the formula πr2h where r is radius and h is height of the coin,
So we get the volume of the coin as,
=π×1.252×0.4=π1.252×0.4
Now, Volume of n number of coins =nπ1.252×0.4
first radius of the cylinder is given as =diameter2=82=4 cm
Hence volume of cylinder we get as, πr2h=π×42×15
Now equation the volume of the cylinder with the volume of n number of coins, we get
Or, nπ1.252×0.4= π×42×15
Or,n=42×151.252×0.4=384
Hence, we get the number of coins as 384.
Hence, option 4 is correct.
