If the radius of a sphere is 16 cm and is melted and recast into a sphere of radius 4 cm. Then find the number of small spheres that are cast. 1. 162. 323. 484. 64

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 64

Given:

Radius of an original sphere = 16 cm

Radius of a recast sphere = 4 cm

Formula Used:

Volume of a sphere = (4/3)πr3 

Number of recast spheres =  Volume of the original sphere/Volume of the recast sphere

Calculation:

Volume of a original sphere = 4/3 π (16)3

Volume of the recast sphere = 4/3 π (4)3

Hence, number of recast spheres = Volume of the original sphere/Volume of the recast sphere

⇒ [(4/3) π (16)3]/[(4/3) π (4)3] = 64

∴ The number of recast spheres is 64.
