Hanumappa and his wife Gangavva are busy making jaggery out of sugarcane. They have processed the sugarcane juice to make the molasses which is poured into moulds. It will be cooled to solidify in this shape to be sent to the market. Each mould is in the shape of a frustum of a cone having the radii of its two circular faces as 30 cm and 35 cm and the height of the mould is 14 cm. If each cm3 of molasses weighs about 1.2 gm, find the weight of molasses that can be poured into each mould.
