A well of diameter 4m is dug 14m deep. The earth taken out is spread evenly all around the well to form a 40cm high embankment. Find the width of the embankment

82.72m

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = πr2h

= 3.142*7*7*14

= 2,155.41m³

Now that we hav the volume of earth, we go on to find the raduis of the spread

2155.41m³ = 3.142*r²*0.4

2155.41m³ = 1.26r²

r² = 1,710.64

r = 41.36m

Width = diameter = 2r = 82.72m
