Figure shows the fabrication of hollow cylinder with both sides closed from  a rectangula sheet with minimum wastage.

As shown in figure, width of rectangular sheet equals 2D where D is diameter of cylinder .

Circumference of cylinder is πD , hence length of rectangular sheet is ( π+1) D .

AS shown in figure , wasted area, WA =  2D2 - (π/4)D2 - (π/4)D2 = [ 2 - (π/2) ] D2

Utilised area , UA = 2 π D2 + (π/4)D2 + (π/4)D2

Ratio of wasted area to utilised area = [ 2 - (π/2) ] / [ 2 + (π/2) ] = 0.120

If we compare the list of options , the ratio 2/17 ≈ 0.120

Hence the answer :- Ratio of wasted area to utilised areais (2/17)
