CBSEENMA10008852

Determine the ratio of the volume of a cube to that of a sphere which will exactly fit inside the cube.

Solution
Let V1 and V2 be the volume of the cube and sphere respectively, then
V1= (2r)3 and V24 over 3 comma space πr cubed
therefore space space space space straight V subscript 1 over straight V subscript 2 equals fraction numerator left parenthesis 2 straight r right parenthesis cubed over denominator begin display style 4 over 3 end style πr cubed end fraction equals fraction numerator 8 straight r cubed over denominator begin display style 4 over 3 end style πr cubed end fraction equals 6 over straight pi
Hence comma space straight V subscript 1 space colon space straight V subscript 2 equals 6 space colon space straight pi
