Here, r = 3 cm, h = 10.5 cm
The penholders have only one base i.e., these are open at one end.
Total surface area of 1 penholder
= 2πrh + πr2 = πr (2h + r)
= 22 /7 × 3 (2 × 10.5 + 3) cm2
= 22/ 7 × 3 × 24 cm2
Total surface area of 35 penholders = 22/ 7 × 3 × 24 × 35 cm2 = 7920 cm2
Hence, 7920 cm2 of cardboard is needed Ans.
