A metal sphere of radius 9 is melted and transformed into three identical spheres.
Find the volume of the original sphere
V =
V = 3053.628 cu/cm
then
= 1017.876 cu/cm is the volume of the smaller spheres
:
What are the radii of these spheres?
= 1017.876
= 3(1017.876)
=
= 243
r =
r = 6.24 cm
:
What is the ratio of the area of one of these spheres to the area of the original sphere?
cancel 4pi
= ~
