Correct Answer: 32


Solution : Given: A spherical ball of radius 6 cm and a hemisphere of radius 24 cm.
The volume of the sphere = $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$
The volume of the hemisphere = $\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$, where $r$ is the radius.
Let $x$ be the spherical balls made.
According to the question,
$x \times \frac{4}{3} \pi\times 6^3=\frac{2}{3}\pi \times{24}^3$
⇒ $x=2\times4\times4=32$
Hence, the correct answer is 32.
