Question

The radius of the large sphere is double the radius of the small sphere. How many times does the volume of the large sphere than the small sphere? 2 4 6 8

Answer 1

Answer:

8 times larger.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of the large sphere is double the radius of the small sphere.

Question asked:

How many times does the volume of the large sphere than the small sphere

Solution:

Let radius of the small sphere = $x$

As the radius of the large sphere is double the radius of the small sphere:

Then, radius of the large sphere = $2x$

To find that how many times is the volume of the large sphere than the small sphere, we will divide the volume of large sphere by  volume of small sphere:-

For smaller sphere: $Radius = x$

$Volume \ of \ sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$

                             $=\frac{4}{3} \pi x^{3}$

For larger sphere: $Radius = 2x$

$Volume \ of \ sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$

                             $=\frac{4}{3} \pi (2x)^{3}$

Now, we will divide volume of the larger by the smaller one:

$=\frac{4}{3} \pi (2x)^{3}\div\frac{4}{3} \times\frac{\pi }{1 } \times x^{3}\\ \\ =\frac{4}{3} \pi\times8x^{3} \times\frac{3}{4\pi }\ \times\frac{1}{x^{3} }$

$\frac{4}{3}\pi\ is \ canceled\ by\ \frac{3}{4\pi } \ and\ also\ x^{3} is\ canceled\ by \ \frac{1}{x^{3} }$

Now, we have

= $\frac{8}{1}$

Therefore, the volume of the large sphere is 8 times larger than the smaller sphere.
