Question:

How many spherical balls of radius 5 cm can be made by melting a spherical clay ball having a radius of 15 cm?

Options:

18

3

9

27

Correct Answer:

27

Explanation:

Given,

Radius of spherical clay ball = 15 cm

Radius of smaller clay balls = 5 cm

So, the spherical balls that can be made = \(\frac{15^3}{5^3}\) = \(\frac{3375}{125}\) = 27
