  1. A child reshapes a cone made up of clay of height 24cm and radius 6cm into a sphere. The radius (in cm) of the sphere is
    1. 6
    2. 12
    3. 24
    4. 48
Correct Option: A

Volume of the cone =
1
πr²h
3

=
π
× 6 × 6 × 24 cm³
3

= Volume of the sphere If the radius of the sphere be r cm, then
4
πr³ =
π
× 6 × 6 × 24
33

⇒r³ = 6 × 6 × 6
∴ r = √6 × 6 × 6 = 6 cm.
